Tantalum and niobium
Summary. Niobium and tantalum do not occur naturally as free metals. The charge to ionic ratio of tantalum and niobium results in strong bonds being formed with oxygen; in fact, most niobium–tantalum minerals are oxides, rather than silicates, sulfides or phosphates. Three types of niobium and tantalum deposits are: carbonatite-hosted ...
