Discovery

In 1744, by J.G. Gahn (Stockholm, Sweden) separating out.

Source

The most abundant mineral is soft manganese ore {pyrolusite (MnO2)}, and hard manganese ore {psilomelane [(BaH2O) 2 Mn5O10]} and rhodochrosite {rhodochrosite (MnCO3)}.

Element USES

Used in the manufacture of steel, battery, ceramics, etc.
