Ti - Titanium

A transition metal. Discovered in the mineral manaccanite in 1791 by William Gregor in England. Isolated in 1875 by Kirillov in Russia. Titanium, when pure, is a lustrous, white metal. Titanium minerals are quite common. The metal has a low density, good strength, is easily fabricated, and has excellent corrosion resistance. The metal burns in air and is the only element that burns in nitrogen. It is marvellous in fireworks.
