We're told the universe was compressed to singularity at the time of the BIG BANG. Since iron is a large portion of all planets does anyone know much iron has been compressed so far in laboratory test or did they just forget about testing?

There were no atoms or subatomic particles in the early universe, only bosons, particles which have no problem occupying the same position in space as their compatriots. Baryons and other massive particles appeared later after symmetry was broken.

Hi. The iron is an end product of star formation and life cycle. These conditions can not be reproduced on Earth. They didn't forget, it just has no meaning. Hydrogen, on the other hand, has been compressed to a metal.
