6. Plutonium\r
If youre trying to get ahold of some plutonium, it might be quite difficult. Plutonium is present in nature it needs to be chemically altered for it to be useful, or destructive, to humans. This nuclear substance can sell for about $4000 per gram. Its also one of the most dangerous substances due to its radioivity. It can be used for nuclear weapons, and reors to create energy. Freshly prepared plutonium shares a similar color to silver but turns out to be a more oxidized green color once exposed to air. Since the substance is so expensive and rare, when nuclear weapons are decommissioned, the plutonium is occasionally extred and used in power plants.\r

4. Diamonds\r
Also known as a girls best friend, this rare substance pairs great with gold already mentioned in our list. Theyve been prized for their symmetry and ability to last forever. They are the most expensive gemstone and are formed underneath the Earths crust due to extreme pressure and heat. All this allows carbon molecules to turn into this lovely gemstone thats driven humans insane since they were discovered. Some scientists have even developed diamond fories that recreate the same intense pressure found in the earths crust. Since diamonds are so well-sought after, it has created much violence in some countries in Africa.\r

3. Mystery Slime\r
Weve looked through some substances that might have seemed completely useless until someone found a good purpose for it. Although this rare red mystery slime doesnt have a purpose just yet, theyll certainly find some use for it. This red mucus is only found in the fjords of northern Norway and many scientists are left scratching their heads. Some believe they are possibly dead jellyfish turned into some type of organic jelly. But no one knows for sure what it is. The Norwegians however, will most likely not be spreading this on their toast. What could this recently discovered substance be. Could something like this become extremely valuable in the future? \r

2. Tritium \r
Tritium is a naturally occurring substance on earth but extremely rare and hard to come by. Only tiny particles are possible to get, making you extremely lucky if you do. It forms when deuterium or nitrogen atoms are struck by cosmic rays. This creates the spectacular glowing appearance we see in exit, neon signs and anything that can glow especially in watches, allowing you to see the hand when its dark. Tritium can glow brightly for at least 12 years long! \r

1.Antimatter\r
How could something with a name like antimatter ually exist? Well, its basically the opposite of normal matter, if that makes sense. In antimatter, the electrons are negatively charged, and the protons are negatively charged. They believe antimatter was released during the big bang. Its by far the most expensive substance to create, which causes about 100 billion dollars to make one milligram of antimatter. Despite the cost, this doesnt stop organisations like Nasa from trying to produce antimatter. So whats it look like? Good question. Its best to look at it from an atomic level until e
