Joe,

Lets try this one more time.

<< It appeared that much of the metals being sent to the mint some 80 years earlier was actually being discarded. This unusable metal at the time, turned out to be platinum and most of the platinum group metals (PGMs >>

Much of the metals being sent turned out to be of the patinum group metals. I guess they didn't mine these, being desert dirt they just showed up at the mint?

Tim
