Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
Gold and silver are less reactive and are found in native states. These metals are less reactive with other elements and due to this property of gold and silver, they are used as ornaments. They are also called noble metals and lie at the very bottom of the reactivity series. So, they are inert in nature and hence present in their pure form as they do not react with other elements or acids.
