PALLADIUM Documentary: Mining, Science and History

As one of the key platinum group metals, palladium is a highly prized commodity. It commands more monetary value than gold and is 30 times as rare, with industrial demand outstripping supply for the last decade.

Palladium plays a vital role in reducing harmful emissions and is the premiere choice for hybrid electric vehicle exhaust systems, making it an essential component of the new green economy.

In the world of jewelry, palladium’s unique properties make it ideal in the creation of white gold and its ability to absorb 900 times its volume in hydrogen makes it invaluable in the field of chemistry.

In this palladium documentary, we seek to clear the air and provide the facts on one of the most vital platinum group metals.
