I'm sure this is a real long shot since I'm having difficulty finding it myself, but I'm sure there are people around here with industrial ties to an industry that uses a lot of germanium. I'm hoping someone like that could help me source some. I need at least 3 9s. (99.9%) so home made scrap germanium from old transistors probably isn't sufficient, unless there is a very high quality purification method easily available. If you know a method, information would be highly appreciated.

Spot price is apparently ~$55/Oz however from my research its very clear to not expect to find anything quite like that. I'd prefer it in 1 troy ounce or smaller increments. Gram or partial gram increments would be fantastic, but I'll limit my desire to anything smaller than 1 troy oz.

Any information is greatly appreciated, thanks.

Wow I'm dumb, locking thread, found some for ~$5/gram not outrageously expensive.
