Usage examples
  • Strontium is a soft metal like lead and, when freshly cut, has a silvery lustre. It rapidly reacts in air to take on a yellowish colour; therefore, it must be protected from oxygen for storage. It does not occur free in nature. Although it is widely distributed with calcium, there are only two principal ores of strontium alone, celestine (SrSO4) and strontianite (SrCO3).
