All of them? Are you sure?

On an unrelated note, apparently the Eagles “Their Greatest Hits” album was certified 38x Platinium.

Oh no, not all of them. I'm just too lazy to write a more accurate sentence.

-ium is a commonly used Latin suffix for elements. The name for platin cones from spanish "platina", 'little silver'.

There’s also molybdenum, lanthanum, and tantalum. “ium” is not a hard and fast rule.
