The exceedingly rare mineral Rheniite (rhenium sulphide) was found forming in fumerols on the Kudriavy volcano. Scientists estimate the volcano releases 20 to 60 Kilograms of Rhenium Sulfide a year. Rhenium is extremely rare and hard to extract yet it allows the creation of super alloys that keep their strength at glowing hot temperatures. With a price about 10% that of Gold, The use of Rhenium is generally limited to uses such as the turbine blades i
Rhenium is the heaviest element that still has stable isotopes. The nucleus is so large and the decay n military jet engines and in electrical contacts where arcin g is a problem.energies so low that the decay rate can be affected by external forces. OMG
