3 Facts

3.1 Interesting Facts

Chromium is highly reactive, hence it is not found free in nature.

Ores of Chromites mineral are the major source of Chromium metal.

Almost 90% leather tanning is done with the help of chromium.

Neodymium is not found free in nature, hence it is not a native metal.
Neodymium metal found in minerals like Monazite and Bastnaesite.
