Hey Jones isn't that plaium stuff the most expensive mineral or resorse known to man?I thought it was more expensive than gold or someething like that,and the stuff they use in catalatic converters?
About 60% of our platinum and 85% of our palladium goes directly to catalytic converters. You probably have 1/2 to 3/4 of an ouncein your line truck. Platinum is also very popular in jewelry right now.
Friday's market prices per ounce:
Gold - $580/oz
Silver - $11/oz
Platinum - $1070/oz
Palladium - $325/oz
We also have rhodium in our ore at over $4,000/oz, but very little of it (which is why it's so expensive).
Thursday we had a power outage when a pole down the valley from us burned. Linemen working in driving rain and wind saved our butt. Hats off to ya!
