The Periodic Table of Fictional Minerals

It makes sense that a website called BuyMetalOnline would put together an infographic that focuses on minerals. But this one looks only at fictional minerals found in TV shows, animated series, games, comic books, films and literature. Each element shows the creator, the elemental symbol, and the name. But, somehow, we feel like we need a key to decode all the creators, not having played all these games or seen all the films.

If you can’t quite make out all the symbols in the graphic above, check out the full-size version here. Or compare it to the Interactive Periodic Table of Fictional Elements.
