Thehistory of palladium begins with the history of platinum and theplatinum group metals of which palladium is a member. Traces ofplatinum have been found among artifacts from ancient Egypt, dated tothe seventh century B.C. and from Thebes, where craftsmen most likelymistaking it for silver, hammered and formed it in much the same manner.
Centuriesbefore the arrival of the Spanish in the Americas, the Esmeraldas ofthe coastal region of Northern Ecuador fashioned small pieces ofjewelry, rings and pendants of platinum or platinum and gold combined,which displayed significant and sophisticated metallurgical skill.Following a comprehensive study involving independent consultants andthe Palladium Alliance International, under the auspices of theInternational Platinum Group Metals Association, a decision has beentaken to plan and implement a market development programme forpalladium jewelry. The initiative will initially focus on China and theUnited States of America. Norilsk Nickel, the largest producer ofpalladium, will lead, supported by the major palladium producers inSouth Africa (Anglo Platinum, Impala Platinum, and Lonmin) and theUnited States of America (Stillwater Mining Company).
