Is a really friendly element mainly in Africa where there is a lot of dead due to violent factions which gets weapons selling this metal (is the same columbium col-tan) to chineses, americans and japaneses to they manufacture capacitors used in electronic circuitry components.

@msica almost all of worlds nyobium comes from Brazil, just a few kilometers from were i am now and all of it is produced by only one company the cbmm minning. it was very important during the cold war and space exploration because it makes the steel very resistant to temperature and was used on spacecrafts heatshield.
today its used to make cars in brazil by fiat because it turns possible to make the car with very thin sheets and makes it resistant to oxidation and also malleable.

Niobium is a very important metal, deserves a longer explanation. And has a great strategic importance to Brazil, which produces nearly all the world's niobium.

What periodic table are you using? It would be handy to get a copy of that.

Whoever thumbed me down is a moron, quite frankly.
The metallic ore called "coltan" comes from the shortening of columbite-tantalite, a dull black metallic ore from which the elements niobium (formerly "columbium") and tantalum are extracted.
There are some serious environmental and social concerns surrounding the mining of coltan in such places as Congo.

you are right. i guess that someone who has no idea of chemistry thumbed you down

Niobium is also known as Columbium.

We're updating all the elements over time to make the films better - Niobium will be re-done eventually! Our main website (the link is under "more info") is a good way of following what has been updated and what is coming up!
