Too little and too spread out to be of any use to anyone it might as well not exist. What little is recovered (and little is not a metaphor: world production is absolutely paltry at somewhere around five tons!) comes by way of recovery as a trace contaminant from mining other metals, especially rare earths.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"\" style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\"\u003eScandium is a beautiful pale yellow color with a laundry list of desirable properties.
