Discovery

In 1801, the A.M. del Rio (Mexico City, Mexico) found that, in 1831, by N.G. Selfstrom (Falun, Sweden) to find again.

Source

With green sulfur minerals vanadium stone (patronite, VS4), vanadium lead {vanadinite [Pb5 (VO4) 3 Cl]}, and vanadium price uranium {carnotite [K2 (UO2) 2 (VO4) 2.3 H2O]} exist in nature.

Element USES

And other metal mixed get very hard, durable alloys, used in construction materials, tools and engine manufacturing.
