Actually the "prills" they microphotgraphed do have a startling resemblance to catalytic converter beads. The ratios of platinum and other metals are rather close to the mix used in converters.

Naxos famous Franklin Lake results are also not often found in nature
but the Bosch company's aviation sparkplugs are very close in their
electrodes' composition of those metals. The giveaway is the spectacular Rhodium assays. Rhodium is very rare and 0.02 ounces per ton is a very good assay. Osmium is also very rare and high assays at
the Stillwater deposit run .015 ounces with averages around .005 ounces. So when you see even foot assays with multiple ounces of these metals you "smell a sparkplug". Does it happen in nature ever? Well the richest mine in the world was in Goldstrike Nevada. It ran 700.00 ounces Gold per ton for the first 500 feet in dip. yeah that is seven hundred..look it up. Now the site of the Betze-Post. Did it happen here? apparently by re-assay under controlled conditions by Ledoux,
no...

A nut? maybe he is as nutty as a fruit cake. Walks around in a straightjacket reciting the lords prayer. But nuttier still is believing acres of "unassayable" Pt for as far as they eye can see..

Do you know when metals in the desrt sands started? Try around 1870. the epicentre of phony assaying of the milky way is Phoenix arizona. A suburb of scam is Scottsdale. I have tales from the 50's of assayers using special methods that could find every metal known to man in sand, water, granite or what you like. In 1850 they did diamonds in Colorado in the sand..everywhere you just had to pick them up with your hands.
