Um, sorry: Those are typos. The words "electrical resistivity" should be replaced with "electrical conductivity." (First wanted to list resistivity, then decided to list conductivity instead, but forgot to change the word; the values, however, are correct.)
One further correction: Silver and copper are better than gold with respect to both electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity not only gram for gram, but also by volume.
