OK, folks, looks like you'll all need a scorecard for this "discussion game".

Indium is neither a transition metal nor a rare earth, has an atomic number of 49, and is used in the manufacture of liquid crystal displays. Indium is more abundant in the earth's crust than silver, and is recovered mainly as a byproduct of zinc production.

Iridium is a transition metal with an atomic number of 77, and is very rare in the earth's crust. It is mainly used in high temperature and high corrosion environments for it's durability.

OK, back to the game.....the point of reference is indium, not iridium, Play ball.
