True Anti-matter
Very expensive to make. Harder to store.
In terms of pure element, then perhaps Rhodium at $130 to $150 per gram.
In terms of jewels: With comparable color, clarity, carat size and best cut the Ruby is more expensive than Diamond, Emerald or Sapphire.
In terms of the metaphysical: true love, which has substance, but is not a substance.

I think your question should be rephrazed to what is the least common known substance in the universe. Because the least common substance is probably the most valueable of course this is only if there is a good use for the substance. But honestly I would say the most valuable substance in the known universe as far as humans are concerned right now is light. Light will always be in high demand as long as there is darkness in our universe :)

dont be silly with your oxygens waters and carbons. his question was clear as it possibly be.
the most valuable knows substances that the market is capable of spending money on is Iridium-Rhodium-Unununium (if you can keep them stable somehow) and a series of others stable and, mostly, unstable elements. Talking about gems and cheap metals like gold or platinum is absurd.
Oxygen, hydrogen and carbon are worthless commercially, yet crucial elements playing a peculiar likeabee role of giving a meta-existence of "life". Very absorbing.

Unfortunately, your question is relative and therefore has no absolute answer.
The most valuable substance is what a person needs the most to survive at any given time.
To a person in a desert for a long period of time, WATER is the most valuable substance in the universe.
To a person underwater for 4 minutes, OXYGEN is the most valuable substance in the universe.
To a person who has just suffered a serious wound, BLOOD is the most valuable substance in the universe.
It's all relative.

The universe is large, our knowledge is small.....hum mm i don't know...being that knowledge its self is not a substance really(i guess if you think of it in brain matter terms, or chemical stored in the brain then maybe that will work too), and that all possable knowledge,were it applies, is written down somewhere, which gives knowledge substance....im a say the writtin word

The most valuble substance in the universe is Gold and Nickel. Aluminum is also very valuble.

If you google it, you'll find that it's antimatter- although the value of it varies widely with the source.
