And they said the geology in Arizona wasn't right for rare earth metals. Get your ore tested with an XRF for rare earth metals. This is the only way I know of so if someone else knows of something different PLEASE correct me.

I'll take an ounce of rhodium over an ounce of gold anyday.

Ok back on subject here. Rhodium just hit $4700 an ounce. And it is going to go alot higher.

60% of the world's rhodium is supplied by South Africa and there ore grades are declining rapidly. There is not enough coming online to cover demand. Demand is set to explode since it was found out hybrid vehicles have a bigger emissions footprint than a diesel due to "cold starts".
