Osmium feels abnormally heavy because it’s the world’s densest element. It’s even denser than gold and is almost twice as dense as lead. This small sample weighs around 32g and is worth around $1000. It’s so expensive because it’s extremely rare to find in nature, and it’s one of the rarest elements on earth.

The most RAREST elements on earth is ASTATINE [At(85)], it only lasts for 2.5 secs and highly radioactive! Predicted to be a dark, metallic-looking solid, though a macroscopic sample has never been visually seen because it would vaporize from its own radioactive heat.
