Copper and Gold are quite similar metals, the main difference being their decor bonuses are +20% and +50% respectively. So, why not be able to combine them? This is already done in real life in the form of Rose Gold, an alloy of Copper and Gold. Of course, it will have essentially the same properties as both Copper and Gold, BUT have a decor bonus of a wopping +75%! That's all thanks to its beautiful pink hue. Not to mention, since it's an alloy, like Steel and Thermium, it can be used as both a Refined Metal AND Metal Ore. Here are all the properties it should have:

 - Resource Category: Manufactured Material

 - Resource Properties: General Buildable, Metal Ore, Plumbable, Refined Metal

 - Effects: +50 °C Overheat Temperature; +75% Decor Bonus

 - Thermal Conductivity: 60 DTU/ms °C

 - Specific Heat Capacity: 0.2058 DTU/g °C

 - Light Absorption: 100%

 - Radiation Absorption: 44%

 - Melting Point: 1073.85 °C.

Rose Gold, when melted, should become Molten Rose Gold, which reaches its boiling point above 2560.85 °C and becomes 30% Copper Gas and 70% Molten Gold. Rose Gold shines best at sigificanly reducing the negative decor of Heavi-Watt Conductive Wire, as well as majorly boosting the Metal Block's and Metal Tile's decor. Rose Gold is some REALLY pretty stuff. Now to obtain it, simply put 30 kg Copper and 70 kg Gold into a Metal Refinery, producing 100 kg Rose Gold and 32,152.12 kDTU per recipe. Well, since Rose Gold is some powerful stuff decor wise, the recipe may be needed to be unlocked at a rather high teir on the Research Tree, perhaps under Pressurized Forging, but that's just a sugestion. Otherwise, you could lower the decor bonus a little, but keep it rather high, as that's the whole point of Rose Gold as a material.
