PALLADIUM Documentary: Mining, Science and History

As one of the key platinum group metals, palladium is a highly prized commodity. It commands more monetary value than gold and is 30 times as rare, with industrial demand outstripping supply for the last decade.
Palladium plays a vital role in reducing harmful emissions and is the premiere choice for hybrid electric vehicle exhaust systems, making it an essential component of the new green economy.
In the world of jewelry, palladium’s unique properties make it ideal in the creation of white gold and its ability to absorb 900 times its volume in hydrogen makes it invaluable in the field of chemistry.
In this palladium documentary, we seek to clear the air and provide the facts on one of the most vital platinum group metals.

last year it was worth 3k, I had 2 ounze of palladium and sold it. One of the best investments i made. I bought it for 1300 both of them years ago.

[@CommodityCulture]

Wow that's a great return!

[@roymanalang8784]

I have many palladium ball size I want to communicate with your company.

[@LassieFarm]

Yah but now you have green paper that's plummeting in buying power

[@mr.iforgot3062]

I bought 608lbs. Of platinum and Palladium and forgot where I put it. Somewhere near the arctic circle. It's pretty cold up there.

[@Enjoymentboy]

As someone who does back yard refining I can say from first hand experience that Palladium is a true PITA to recover and refine. I'm actually shocked it is as cheap as it is. I would honestly expect it to be 4-5X more expensive. But it is a beautiful metal and my 2nd favourite right behind silver. A great video btw. I do hope you contacted Sreetips to advise you were going to use a clip from his channel. The guy does a LOT of hard work and deserve the credit.

[@CommodityCulture]

Thanks for the comment. I didn't ask him because I used the clip for a couple of seconds and credited him.

[@Osirus1972]

Excellent video. This is the main metal mines where I work. Lac Des Iles mine is one if not the only mine where palladium is the major metal mined. Cheers!

Awesome, thanks for watching!

My new favorite channel! Thanks for the golden nuggets of information! I think the universe is pointing me in a specific direction. Between my newfound interest in sound money, recently being hired by a geologist, and finding this channel, the pieces are falling into place. I'm excited to build my knowledge at the beginning of a commodity super cycle.

[@CommodityCulture]

Awesome, glad to have you on board!

[@dalkrin]

I hope you keep making these sort of videos! Copper might be a good topic.

[@CommodityCulture]

Thank you, I was considering copper and will probably do a video on it at some point.

[@sandmanslim4637]

Yet another fantastic video. Educational value to anyone. Keep'em coming.

[@thariquenalakath7449]

One of the biggest application palladium is in catalysis, which has been extensively used pharmaceutical industry and other industries including bulk, commodity chemicals and agrochemicals. Due to this 2010 Chemistry Nobel Prize was awarded for palladium catalysis (Prof. Negishi, Prof. Suzuki and Prof. Heck). It would have been great if the speaker included this information as well.

[@CommodityCulture]

Thanks for the info!

I'm far from an expert on the palladium market but it seems like a decent speculation to me.

[@218philip]

Reality is is going take the fanciful predictions about EVs to the woodshed.

[@JanisOteps]

Good video! With one exception - questioning if electrification will fully come to pass seems quite illogical. What are the alternatives? Are you proposing humanity goes back to horses? The oil will run out so there is no alternative to electrification.

[@CommodityCulture]

This is very misguided. Oil will not run out, we have plenty. Fossil fuels are to be embraced, not shunned.

[@williamvaughan1218]

Platinum and palladium play two completely different roles in catalytic converters. Platinum stores and releases oxygen where as palladium breaks nitrogen from no2 but it can only do so when there is a absence of free oxygen. That's why fuel control systems must cycle from rich to lean in a precise manner.

[@jfobear1953]

I enjoyed the history of Palladium presented. However, I am sure that internal combustion engines WILL vanish within the next 40 to 50 years. They are already being legislated out of the auto industry by 2030 or 2040 in most developed countries. As you noted there are many processes that will still require Pd.

[@CommodityCulture]

Thank you for watching. I'm not so sure they'll be phased out, the political class dictating these legislations are some of the most ignorant and vile people on the planet and they have no clue what it actually takes to make that happen.

I know it’s not OK to say the R word, but Russia also exports it as one of their main exports. I watched this metal go from 800 to 1500 in a matter of days and then drop down the 500 and then jump all the way back up to 14
