***POISONOUS***
Used for platinum testing, chemical analysis and ore benefaction testing of minerals with Platinum.
The standard will react in a known way when a test is performed on it. This is a known quality. A geologist will then perform the same test, under the same conditions with a platinum ore sample from the field. This will help them determine the properties of the platinum in the sample.
