The science of platinum. It's not something you stumble across every day. Platinum is only the 72nd most common chemical element in Earth's crustâand, given that there are only 94 natural elements anyway, that makes it pretty rare. That's largely why platinum is so expensive. Currently it costs around $50,000 or Â£30,000 per kilogram (which is about $22,000 or Â£13,000 per pound). So the adult-sized block we spoke about earlier would set you back a cool $80 million or so.
