I don't understand what you refer to when you say " valuable fission products (such as platinum group metals)",can you explain something more?
Which time frames do you mean?

Several percent of the mass of fissioned uranium is quickly converted to stable
isotopes of rhodium. Spent reactor fuel is by far the richest rhodium ore
in the world. Palladium and ruthenium are also produced abundantly,
although the palladium is contaminated by a very long lived radioisotope.
