New Palladium Bullion Commemorating the Lewis & Clark Expedition Available
Stillwater Mining Company and Northwest Territorial Mint in Conjunction with Johnson Matthey Announce the Availability of Palladium Bullion Commemorating the Lewis & Clark Expedition. Palladium is a precious metal and part of the platinum group metals.
(PRWEB) October 14, 2004 -- Northwest Territorial Mint now mints and sells groundbreaking palladium bullion, struck in .9995 pure palladium from the Stillwater Mining Company, with refining from Johnson Matthey. The result is the only American produced palladium bullion available. This unique product comes in the form of bars and rounds of 1 ounce and rounds of fractional ounces.
Palladium is a soft, silvery-white platinum group metal that is more valuable than silver and more rare than gold. It also has a large number of industrial applications because of its important catalytic properties. Its largest single use is in automobile catalytic converters, but it sees other uses in electronics as an excellent and tarnish free conductor, and in other uses as wide ranging as a chemical industry catalyst, dental crowns, jewelry and fine art photography, among other uses.

Northwest Territorial Mint strikes both rounds and bars commemorating Lewis and Clark. The reverse of each round features the Montana Buffalo in a classic design. Each round and bar comes sealed in a clear plastic card which details the assay certification.
The year 2004 commemorates the 200th anniversary of Lewis and Clarks Corps of Discovery" exploration of the west. Lewis & Clark passed nearby the present Stillwater mining area on their journey through Montana. The year also commemorates the 200th anniversary of the metal palladium by William Hyde Wollaston, a noteworthy British chemist. In 1804 he named the newly discovered metal after the then recently discovered asteroid Pallas, from the Greek Goddess of wisdom.
