Just like platinium, molybdenium, lanthanium, and tantalium. And we won't go into aurium, argyrium, ferrium, cuprium...
There are some who would argue this has already happened...
That's one of the questions they're hoping will be asked later, or not at all. They're certainly leaving no stone unthrown.
It doesn't look like it. But as a preview, try shining a very bright light almost parallel to the surface. That'll make any relief around the date...
