   Precious metals are chemical elements characterized by high economic value, rarity, superior resistance to corrosion and oxidation, and inherent malleability. Historically, their scarcity and desirable physical properties have positioned them as primary media of exchange, stores of value, and essential components in ornamentation and specialized industrial applications. While gold ($\text{Au}$)/) and silver ($\text{Ag}$)/) constitute the archetypal precious metals, platinum group metals (PGMs)/) have gained si…
