Abstract
Our knowledge of the structural chemistry of gold has been advanced in recent years by the use of X-ray techniques to the point where achievements in this field can be constructively discussed. In this article — Part II of which will appear in the next issue of Gold Bulletin — the literature on the subject (intermetallic compounds of gold excepted) up to early 1980 is reviewed comprehensively and some selected, more recent examples are discussed.
