Niobium is estimated to be the 33rd most abundant element in the Earth's crust, at 20 ppm. [46] Some believe that the abundance on Earth is much greater, and that the element's high density has concentrated it in Earth's core. [33] The free element is not found in nature, but niobium occurs in combination with other elements in minerals. [40]
The mineral columbite The element niobium. In 1846, Rose rediscovered the chemical element niobium, proving conclusively that it was different from tantalum. This confirmed that Charles Hatchett had discovered niobium in 1801 in columbite ore. Hatchett had named the new element "columbium", from the ore in which niobium and tantalum coexist.

Niobium is a chemical element with symbol Nb and atomic number 41. A rare, soft, grey, ductile transition metal , niobium is found in the minerals pyrochlore (the main source for niobium) and columbite .
The main source of niobium until now has been from the ore mineral columbite that is extracted widely in Canada, Brazil, Australia and Nigeria, with China obtaining nearly 95 per cent of the ...
Charles Hatchett FRS FRSE (2 January 1765 – 10 March 1847 [1]) was an English mineralogist and analytical chemist who discovered the element niobium, for which he proposed the name "columbium". [2] Hatchett was elected a Fellow of the Linnaean Society in 1795, [3] and of the Royal Society in 1797.
