Thermal Conductivity chart of common metals reveals some surprising results.
Whilst Titanium is light, the only worse metal conductivity is stainless steel
with Silver being the second highest and therefore the most useful
Cook pots should be made of pure Silver as the most efficient usage for hikers where fuel is always at a premium.
