From the Beeb today, on the start on a new Tungsten mine down in the UK West Country ….
“Tungsten is an extraordinary metal.
“It’s almost as hard as a diamond and has one of the highest melting points of any mineral.
“Adding a small amount to steel makes it far harder, far more resistant to stress and heat. The benefits to industry are obvious.”
Dr John Emsley
Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry
If Dr Elmsley really is FRSC, then I’m guessing he didn’t actually say it like that, if he did ….
Anyway, the first and third sentences are true enough. The second would be true if he were talking about Tungsten Carbide as opposed to Tungsten at the time.
