Most vanadium exists in minerals, oil deposits, and as byproducts of mining operations. Some organisms, such as tunicates and fly agaric, accumulate vanadium for unknown purposes.

Vanadium phosphates enable low-cost pearlescent pigment synthesis

One thing that will never go out of style is the class and elegance of a pearl. To attempt to recreate the rare beauty of the pearl, a low-cost alternative is needed to keep up with the demand of consumers Thanks to their special iridescence and unmatched beauty, pearls have been highly sought after throughout history. Due to their rarity and demand, the development of pearlescent pigments to mimic the natural beauty of a true pearl became inevitable. Here, researchers utilize plate-like particles to create substrate-free pearlescent pigments, a low-cost and straightforward solution to the issue of substrate-based pigments which can be complex and expensive. Researchers published their results in the Journal of Alloys and Compounds in November 2024.

Round 2 - Matchup 15

Vanadium 23 (V) - Vanadium steel is good for tools, a lot of spanners and such are vanadium.

vs

Potassium 19 (K) - Makes your bananas slightly radioactive. And also most other fruits and vegetables, because it's essential to life.

I shall continue if you wish me to. Thank you for reading my cryptic and eldritch comments on your AU's askblog, sorry if they are too cryptic, i just like writing eldrtch horrors and i also really like characters like Gaster, so that influences some things i send. I hope they gave you a good fright, though.

Have a wonderful day.

Signed, -Vanadium

it's like i'm reading complex character analysis (i love complex character analysis)

i know we’ve both dealt with loss before, so with this glass of milk, sir, i implore you: did you cry when he went away? did you cry in the mornings and evenings and all the sightings of all the things that somehow traced back to the same park bench you shared that you never thought would put you in a state like this, like montana with its sweeping prairies? let us act out that time at camp: you are on your seventh now, because we drink into the night like old chaps though we are not old chaps at all and you are too good, too good to let emotions get the better of you, sir. my parents think one day you will be on the news; i will remember you and you will not i, but to be a blip in your grand career of perfection is all i have asked for. and i got it. cheers, i got it.

Why Salt Water may be the Future of Batteries. There’s no shortage of solutions to the world’s need for renewable energy storage, but there is a shortage of accessible and cheap resources to use for those solutions. Lithium and vanadium aren't limitless, so what about regular, run-of-the-mill salt? Redox flow batteries, or RFBs, can exploit the abundance of elements like sodium and iron. One U.S. company already has salt water batteries ready to go, with at least two others developing iron flow variations built to effectively run on rust. They promise to last longer and be far cheaper than the competition. So, what happens if we go with the flow?

Powering the future—ultrathin films enhance electrical conductivity in flexible electronics

What if your electronic devices could adapt on the fly to temperature, pressure, or impact? Thanks to a new breakthrough in downsizing quantum materials, that idea is becoming a reality. In an article published this month in Applied Physics Express, a multi-institutional research team led by Osaka University announced that they have successfully synthesized an ultrathin vanadium dioxide film on a flexible substrate, in a way that preserves the film's electrical properties. Vanadium dioxide is well known in the scientific community for its ability to transition between conductor and insulator phases at nearly room temperature. This phase transition underpins smart and adaptable electronics that can adjust to their environment in real time. But there is a limit to how thin vanadium dioxide films can be, because making a material too small affects its ability to conduct or insulate electricity.

🚀 Terra Metals Limited (ASX: TM1) – Interim Report & Exciting Developments!

Terra Metals has released its interim financial report, showcasing major progress across its multi-commodity exploration portfolio. With key milestones achieved, the company is well-positioned to unlock the full potential of its strategic assets, setting the stage for continued growth.

🔹 Dante Project – A Multi-Commodity Breakthrough

✅ High-Grade Titanium & Multi-Metal Potential – Assays confirm extensive shallow high-grade titanium, copper, gold, PGMs, and vanadium over 2.5km at Reef 1 North. ✅ Major Drilling Success – A total of 66 RC holes (4,875m) and 18 diamond drill holes (3,208m) completed. ✅ Expanding Exploration Targets – Ongoing assays highlight the continuity and scale of the mineralized system, with further resource definition planned.

🔹 Strategic Expansion – Strengthening the Project Portfolio

✅ HRM Exploration Pty Ltd Acquisition Option – Following the end of the half-year period, Terra Metals secured an option to acquire 100% of HRM Exploration Pty Ltd, adding 618km² of highly prospective ground adjacent to Dante, significantly expanding its landholding. ✅ Critical Minerals Focus – Positioned within the Jameson Layered Intrusion, a geological setting comparable to world-class Bushveld-style deposits.

🔹 Other Key Projects & Future Prospects

📌 Onslow Project – High-grade silver mineralization identified, with further geochemical analysis underway. 📌 Southern Cross Project – A large lithium anomaly (~10km x 2km) identified, supporting future drill targets.

🔹 Outlook for the Next Six Months
