Scope of the Global Scandium Metal Market Report:

Scandium metal is a silvery-white metallic element classified as a rare-earth element, made from the combination of yttrium and the lanthanide. This metal is present in many deposits of rare-earth and uranium compounds, extracted from these ores in mines from worldwide. Scandium metal has many properties such as; it is soft with highest density of about three times that of water that is 1.734 ounces per cubic inch, resistant to corrosion and has a high melting point.
Scandium is a transition metal found in more than 800 minerals and also considered a rare earth element due to similar chemical properties. The only scandium metal has few commercial uses and the combination with other metals to make alloys has many several advantages. An alloy is made by melting and mixing two or more metals. Scandium alloys are used in various kinds of sporting equipment such as baseball bats, lacrosse sticks, and bicycle frames and in other applications of the aerospace industry.
