Columbium (Niubium) and Tantalum
COLUMBIUM (NIOBIUM) AND TANTALUM By Larry D. Cunningham Domestic survey data and tables were prepared by Robin C. Kaiser, statistical assistant, and the world production table was prepared by Regina R. Coleman, international data coordinator. Columbium [Niobium (Nb)] is vital as an alloying element in economic penalty in most applications. Neither columbium nor steels and in superalloys for aircraft turbine engines and is in tantalum was mined domestically because U.S. resources are of greatest demand in industrialized countries. It is critical to the low grade. Some resources are mineralogically complex, and United States because of its defense-related uses in the most are not currently (2000) recoverable.

Substitutes are mining of columbium and tantalum in the United States was available for some columbium applications, but, in most cases, during the Korean Conflict, when increased military demand they are less desirable. resulted in columbium and tantalum ore shortages. Tantalum (Ta) is a refractory metal that is ductile, easily Pyrochlore was the principal columbium mineral mined fabricated, highly resistant to corrosion by acids, a good worldwide. Brazil and Canada, which were the dominant conductor of heat and electricity, and has a high melting point. pyrochlore producers, accounted for most of total estimated It is critical to the United States because of its defense-related columbium mine production in 2000.

At a time when the Premier of Western Australia Sir John Forrest had begun to doubt the wisdom of his resource rich but under-developed colony joining the emerging Commonwealth, Kirwan conspired with Perth Federalists, Walter James and George Leake, to force Forrest’s hand. Editor and part- owner of the influential Kalgoorlie Miner, the ‘pocket-handkerchief’ newspaper he had transformed into one of the most powerful journals in the colony, he waged a virulent press campaign against the besieged Premier, mocking and belittling him at every turn and encouraging his east coast colleagues to follow suit. -
