  • Gold: The Malleable Mineral That Retains Its Shape
    The mineral you're looking for is Malleable.

    While "bent without breaking" describes a general property of malleability, a specific mineral that fits this description perfectly is Gold.

    Here's why:

    * Malleability: Gold is highly malleable, meaning it can be hammered or pressed into thin sheets without breaking. This is because its atoms are arranged in a way that allows them to slide past each other easily.

    * Staying Bent: Once bent, gold will retain its new shape.

    Other metals like silver and copper also possess a high degree of malleability, but gold is renowned for its exceptional malleability.
