Once when I was doing aan experiment I have this experience,had the same experience; my ring was decolourised. I was afraid at first but we cancould reverse itthis process to achieve the gold colour once again.

There is no reaction between gold$\ce{Au}$ and $\ce{Hg}$ and it is type of; they form a mixture such thatsimilar to dissolving $\ce{NaCl}$ is soluble in water. When the gold and $\ce{Hg}$mercury are mixed they make aan amalgam, and this thing (this process is call ascalled amalgamation). It is also usesused to allocate pure gold by colluvies.

Before I said that there is no reaction between gold and mercury, therefore there is an easy way to allocate the gold again. YouWe know that the boiling point of gold is morehigher than that of mercury  ($\ce{Hg}$: $\pu{356.7 ^\circ C}$ and $\ce{Au}$: $\pu{2700 ^\circ C}$). Therefore when you heat the amalgam the $\ce{Hg}$mercury will boil off and the gold surface will balancebe restored. But don't do this in the house, give it to a professional gold maker or a gold shopgoldsmith. (After Imy experience this, I went to a gold shop and, they heatheated my ring, and it became suchjust like it was before).)
