[QUOTE="Heatho, post: 250173, member: 487"] You're thinking of Osmium, Osmiridium is not toxic that I know of, it used to be used for fountain pen nibs. Read up on Platinum, group metals Davent, they are pretty interesting. Denser than gold extremely heat resistant. Rhodium (another PGM) was once worth 7 times the price of gold a few years back, used in catalytic converters. :) [/QUOTE]
