They hit it with a gun and said it's Reading Iridium and copper which also looks like gold in a tiny worn spot. Could the Iridium mess with the reading being radioactive or maybe to thick to penetrate? I'd like to sell this thing to have extra holiday money.

My main interest in iridium is that it was for many decades used as the tipping material on the point of most quality fountain pen nibs. The nibs were either made of 14 to 18 kt. gold or steel, and the point would be dipped in a VERRRY tiny drop of molten iridium to create a round ball at the point. The ball was then split like the rest of the nib so that ink would flow through it, and polished to glide smoothly over paper. Being an extremely hard metal, it was more durable than a point made of gold or most types of steel. Pilot of Japan was the last pen company to use real iridium as tipping material. They actually bought the world's last iridium mine to make sure they would have a supplier.

Great video, I enjoyed this one, great information.

We would use iridium to xray welds for inspection. Was so cool to know this existed. Also would use colbolt but not very often. Like who knew radiation would bombard the film around the weld and once you develop the film it gives you a picture of the Weld and will show you any discontinuity in weld. Still find this stuff so fascinating.

And not forgetting the Iridium Throne from the Traveller RPG

Rhenium and iridium are amazing metals. Rhenium is trading at about 1.5 * silver. Yet it's indispensable and probably thousands of times rarer

Thank you interesting video as always. Finally ordered a little piece of pure Iridium to add to my metals collection ;) my favourite along with Titanium, Molybdenum and Tungsten ;)

@gregparrott

7 жыл бұрын

Rarity and value aren't always linked. If it's rare but of no use either in industry, science or in an artifact such as jewelry, who would pay for it? The video stated it's worth $80/gram. There are 28.35 grams/ounce. So Iridium is worth $2268 an ounce. It looks like the current value of gold is $1166 per ounce.

@gregparrott

I had just finished editing my comment to you to include the qualifier that rarity and value aren't always linked. In the case of a dinosaur bone, it has a scientific value and for some collectors or museums with an archeological bent, value as a show piece. I dug up a rock in my backyard. It is unique in that it is the only one from my yard, so it is extremely rare. Anyone want to buy it?
