If these metals will be more common, their price will drop.
When the Spanish brought large amounts of gold and silver from the new word, it became less valuable. Because prices are denominated in gold and silver the result was price inflation.

Market prices are quoted for small amounts. If you try to sell large amounts prices go down. If you try to sell a commodity in orders of magnitude greater that what currently exists in the world, the price drop to a tiny fraction of the quoted market price.
Understanding how markets work doesn’t change that. And this is also how we talk about worth in general. Saying someone is worth $20 billion doesn’t mean they can cash it in tomorrow.
