Platinum Group Metals (platinum, palladium, rhodium, iridium, osmium, and gold) are used in a very diverse range of applications and are highly valued materials. There is significant demand for PGMs, principally the use of platinum, palladium and rhodium in autocatalysts which can convert over 90% of hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide and oxides of nitrogen from gasoline engines into less harmful carbon dioxide, nitrogen and water vapour. Also used in any number of industrial ways as well as new uses in hydrogen fuel cells along with jewellery.
