Hafnium, represented by the chemical symbol Hf and atomic number 72, is a silvery, ductile metal that is resistant to corrosion due to the formation of an oxide layer. Found in nature in conjunction with zirconium, it must be painstakingly separated as they share very similar chemical properties.
Hafnium possesses a high melting point and excellent thermal and electrical conductivity, making it valuable in high-temperature applications.
At TXRocks, we’re honored to provide a wide array of critical minerals integral to industries around the globe. Hafnium, a lesser-known but invaluable mineral, is celebrated for its exceptional properties and finds applications in everything from nuclear reactors to microelectronics.
