  3. Metal? • Bismuth is a white, crystalline, brittle metal with a pinkish tint. • It is the most diamagnetic of all metals. • It’s thermal conductivity is lower than any metal except for mercury.

  4. Nature? • Bismuth is mainly mined in Bolivia, Peru, Japan, Mexico and Canada. • Used in the U.S as a by-product of lead and copper smelting. • Bismuth is made in the Earth’s crust. • It is found naturally as a metal. • Bismuth is more abundant than gold.

  5. Chemicals? • Bismuth mostly contains Bismuthinite Bi2S3 and Bismite Bi2O3. • Normally used in Pharmacy products and fuses as well as fire detection systems and fire sprinklers.

  6. Why you should buy this element? You should buy this element because of its amazing beauty and it is most commonly used in fire sprinklers, fire detection systems and wires and fuses to keep everybody safe. Neat huh. It won’t catch on fire or blow up because of its low thermal conductivity. Is it safe? Yes, it is! For all you ladies wanting to buy this product, it makes you heck of an eye catcher at parties if made in to jewelry. You’ll be getting compliments all night guaranteed.
