Elongated Shiny Platinum Crystal Nugget from Russia

If all the gold ever mined could be brought together and melted into a cube, it would measure 60 feet by 60 feet - a small enough cube it would fit under the Eiffel tower. If all the platinum that has ever been mined could be brought together and melted into a cube, it would fit in a two-car garage. Most platinum is microscopic particles that are extracted from ore. Platinum nuggets are extremely rare, and platinum is the heaviest of the precious metals and very dense. Platinum from this region assays at 85% pure and I have a small collection that I was able to acquire from Khabarovskiy Kray, Russia.
