gold also migrated into the solder.
found in diodes.
There are capacitors with silver and tantalum.
Rich material.

Did you break down the whole oscilloscope, or just have these few boards? The CRT’s on the Tektronix scopes which are part ceramic and part glass (almost all of those I’ve come across) are coated on the inside with gold.
