| Environmental remarks | Manganese is not considered to be scarce. The resource index is 190 year. Metal content of the ore is between 20 - 51%. 90% is extracted in open mine winning. Main producing countries are CIS (31%), South-Africa (18%), Gabon (14%), Australia (12%). The transport is assumed to go by sea-ships. Large quantities of Manganese containing nodules on the ocean floors promise a enormous source of Manganese for the future | |
| Remarks | Manganese is is used for alloys. In steel it improves the strength, toughnes, hardness and wear resistance. With aluminium and with copper it forms highly ferromagnetic alloys. Manganese is gray-white hard and very brittle. It colours glass blue and decolours green glass (iron impurities) | |

Last november was a memorable month for us at Matbase, we passed the milestone of 1000 visitors per day. So I guess we were not that far of when we thought it would be a good idea to make the material database we used as students during our stay at the Delft University of Technology accessable to other people. Apparently, people appreciate the easy way they can lookup the material properties and how we present the data.
