U.S.Geological Survey (USGS): Tantalum
Statistics and Information: Tantalum (Ta) is ductile, easily fabricated, highly resistant to corrosion by acids, and a good conductor of heat and electricity and has a high melting point. The major use for tantalum, as tantalum metal powder, is in the production of electronic components, mainly tantalum capacitors. Major end uses for tantalum capacitors include portable telephones, pagers, personal computers, and automotive electronics. Alloyed with other metals, tantalum is also used in making carbide tools for metalworking equipment and in the production of superalloys for jet engine components.
The United States does not have a tantalum mining industry because resources are of low grade, and the United States must import all of its tantalum source materials for processing. Australia, Brazil, and Canada are the major producers of tantalum mineral concentrates.
