Zirconium and Hafnium
Zirconium and hafnium are typically contained in zircon at a ratio of about 36 to 1. Zirconium chemicals were produced by the metal producer in Oregon and by at least 10 other companies. Ceramics, foundry sand, opacifiers, and refractories are the leading end uses for zircon. Other end uses of zircon include abrasives, chemicals (predominantly ...

Zircon is the primary source of all hafnium, containing it at a ratio of about 50 to 1. Hafnium is particularly resistant to corrosion and can absorb neutrons at a high rate, making it sought after by the nuclear …
Separation of Zirconium and Hafnium: A Review
Zirconium is an ideal material for nuclear reactors due to its low absorption cross-section for thermal neutrons, whereas the typically contained hafnium with strong neutron-absorption is very harmful for zirconium. This paper provides an overview of the processes for separating hafnium from zirconium. The separation processes are roughly ...

Hafnium: Twin Brother of Zirconium | SpringerLink
Since many chemical and physical properties of the two elements are almost identical, all zirconium-bearing minerals (zircon, baddeleyite ) contain about 1–5% hafnium . In geology, this is referred to as twinning or association of the two elements.
