Can anyone identify this ore for me? Could it be palladium or platinum

Hi mate,

Palladium and platinum, like all other platinum group metals, i.e. osmiridium, etc all come usually as free native metal, like gold.
Try crushing and panning and see what you get?

Looks sedimentary, like sandstone.

could be a number of things
pyrite, galena, its not the best photo and you can't see it to clearly
the general area in where it was found could also help identify what it is
a bit more info on it will help others identify it
