COBALT
Cobalt is a hard, lustrous, gray-blue metal naturally found in the Earth’s crust at a concentration of approximately 0.0023%. It rarely occurs in its pure form and is typically associated with other metals in minerals such as cobaltite, erythrite, and skutterudite. Cobalt is widely used across metallurgy, ceramics, chemicals, batteries, and animal husbandry industries due to its unique magnetic and chemical properties. We’re a leading distributor of cobalt-based salts and oxides, offering a complete portfolio of products to serve all industrial sectors and applications.
