Here's about a 10 minute video on how gold and platinum are created. The short answer is that they are created in a kilonova.

    I just clicked on the above link to make sure everything is working right, and on my end it says Safari can't find the server. I'm going to play with the above link a bit.

    EDITED TO ADD: OK, I've gotten it to be a functioning link now.
