About seventy-nine of the one hundred substances are metals. A metal may be defined as a substance which has large conductivity of electricity and of heat, has a characteristic luster, called metallic luster, and some other properties.
The metals themselves and their alloys are of great usefulness to man. Some of them are ductile at higher temperatures and may be easily rolled into sheet. The importance of some alloys is due primarily to their hardness and strength. These properties are a consequence of the presence in the metals of very strong bonds between the atoms.
You have probably heard of such metals as germanium, niobium, thorium, etc. They are called rare metals. Some of them are not plentiful in the earth's crust, the other are difficult and rather costly to extract from their ores, that is they are more difficult to work than the common metals.
Rare metals are found not only in the earth’s crust, but also on the ocean bottom, in plants and animals. For example, titanium has been found in animal flesh and bones, cobalt in marine organisms, lithium in plants and so on.
Rare metals, as you will see presently, have different physical and chemical properties, so they naturally fall into several groups. For instance, lithium, cesium, beryllium are called light rare metals. Molybdenum, rhenium, tantalum, niobium, vanadium, zirconium are referred to as refractory metals.
Rare-earth metals include samarium, cerium, gadolinium, ytterbium, europium, hafnium, etc.
Radium, thorium, uranium, plutonium, californium, polonium, etc. are the radioactive elements. While palladium, rhodium and iridium, osmium are the platinum metals.
Finally, the semiconductors are silicon, germanium, selenium, bismuth, tellurium, etc.
And now let’s have a closer look at one of the rare miraculous metals, which are becoming so important in our age, for these wonder-metals are revolutionizing our life.
