Claude Cormier and all:

I'm apparently missing some important mineralogical point here, but can someone enlighten me as to why PFN news releases persist in labeling gold (Au) as a Platinum Group Metal (PGM)? The statement is clear, "PGM (Pt + Pd + Au + Rh)" and so used throughout their news releases.

Is it stupidity, incompetence, misrepresentation, a rewriting of the English language or just a rearrangement of the periodic table of the elements?

I've seen arguments that gold is no longer valuable, a barbarous relic akin to the base metals. But none arguing that it is a platinum group metal.

And just saying so doesn't make it so.
