About Vanadium

The main use of Vanadium today is in high-strength low-alloy steels. Just ~0.1% of Vanadium can double the strength of steel, thus reducing overall weight of the structures or vehicles. This has a very strong economic and environmental impact as it allows producers to build superior products with less steel. This saves significant material costs and reduces the amount of resources to mine. Vanadium has also been dubbed “the electric metal” for its bright future in energy storage and green technology. Highly concentrated and economical sources to mine are only found in China, South Africa and Russia. In 2007 & 2008, VanadiumCorp acquired the most prolific Vanadium deposits in North America.
