The behavior of niobium and tantalum is poorly understood in rocks that have undergone significant hydrothermal alteration, and niobium-tantalum minerals of hydrothermal origin are rarely mentioned in the literature. Consequently, the mobility of these critical metals, although widely considered to be negligible, has not been evaluated. In this paper, we …

Niobium and tantalum are transition metals that are almost always found together in nature because they have very similar physical and chemical properties. Their properties of hardness, conductivity, and resistance to corrosion largely determine their primary uses today. The leading use of niobium (about 75 percent) is in the production of high …
ABSTRACT. The norm of elastic constant tensor and the norms of the irreducible parts of the elastic constants of Tantalum, and its alloys at different percentages of Hydrogen, Molybdenum, Niobium, Rhenium and Tungsten are calculated. The relation of the scalar parts norms and the other parts norms and the anisotropy of these alloys are presented.

Niobium and tantalum are chemically similar and are associated with each other in nature which makes it very difficult to separate. For many years, the separation of tantalum from niobium involved the fractional crystallization of potassium heptafluorotantalate away from potassium oxypentafluoroniobate monohydrate, this method has been supplanted by …

Tantalum concentrations were determined by neutron-activation analysis. The equilibrium distribution coefficient for tantalum dissolved in niobium was found to be 1.4 in the limit of pure niobium. With the addition of approximately 1 1 2% titanium to the solid solution, this distribution coefficient was decreased to slightly less than unity.
