Ike, There I fall down a bit. Platinum has always been considered "precious" and palladium has never been so. So, you will see platinum jewelry and coins but no palladium. However, I think you are asking about the industrial uses and I really don't have the technical background to compare them. In the past, it was usually use platinum until you could refine your process so that palladium works. But, now, with palladium selling for more than platinum, it could go the other way for awhile. But I do not know the specs. I do know that when you own a platinum mining co., you get palladium and rhodium, too. Now, if you ask me about uses for rhodium, I'll look really ignorant. <g>
