New Metal Discovered in British Forge District
A new metal, named Cunadium, has been discovered in the British forge district. It forms grains and short crystal rods, includes an alloy, and assays suggest three or fewer tons of supply. It resists oxidation in air, has a lower melting point, and shows luster with gold, silver, and platinum. Physical and chemical properties will be studied at the University of Glasgow laboratory. Cunadium is the first new metal found in substantial quantities since 1885.
