It's difficult to answer this question specifically due to ever changing prices and the difficulty in getting information on certain elements. By far however the transuranic elements are the most expensive because of production and permit costs. Plutonium can cost around $4,000/gram and Californium can cost $10/mg or $10,000/gram.
