History of vanadium Vanadium was first discovered in 1801 by Andr´es Manuel del Rio, a Spanish professor of mineralogy working in Mexico City. He originally named the element panchromium after the various color of its salts, but later renamed it erythronium because of the red color generated upon heating. Unfortunately, del Rio lost confidence in his discovery, thinking that he had found the element chromium, which had recently been discovered by the Frenchman Fourcroy. Vanadium was rediscovered in 1831 by the Swede Nils Gabriel Sefstr¨om. Its present name is derived from the Vanadis, the goddess of love and beauty of Norse mythology. Metallic vanadium was not isolated until 1867 when Sir Henry Enfield Roscoe, Professor of Chemistry at Owens College (later the University
