Platinum

Platinum is a chemical element with the chemical symbol Pt and an atomic number of 78. Its name is derived from the Spanish term platina del Pinto, which is literally translated into "little silver of the Pinto River." A dense, malleable, ductile, precious, gray-white transition metal, platinum is resistant to corrosion and occurs in some nickel and copper ores along with some native deposits. Platinum is valued as a precious metal, often fabricated into platinum coins and bars. It is used to make jewelry, laboratory equipment, electrical contacts, electrodes and catalytic converters. Platinum is a precious metal whose market valuation has a higher correlation with industrial demand than gold or silver.
