Platinum's atomic number is 78 and its symbol is Pt. Platinum has been a household name since the 18th century. This expensive and precious metal gets its name from a Spanish term meaning "little silver". When platinum was first discovered intermingled with gold it was seen as an impurity that was annoying and therefore just thrown away. Now, as I write this in the spring of 2021, an ounce of platinum is worth $1,263 USD.
80% of all platinum mined in the world comes from South Africa. Its most common uses are to make catalytic converters, jewelry, and petroleum products.

Safety

We get asked about the radioactivity and overall safety of the periodic tables/cubes from time to time. These are legitimate concerns and we wanted to address those concerns here. Although there are several elements in the cubes that are dangerous or toxic, the acrylic and glass ampules make the products safe to handle and store.

The average American is exposed to 0.034 mrem/hr from background radiation (300 mrem/year). In other words, a person will get three times the radiation from natural background radiation which includes the sun, food, radon, and the environment, than they will from holding a radioactive element in one of our Lucite Acrylic displays.
