Antimony rarely occurs in its native metallic form in nature. It easily combines with other elements, usually including sulfur, to form over 100 different minerals. Of these minerals, only stibnite (SbS3) is mined commercially as a source for metallic antimony. Antimony is found in trace (that is, very minor) amounts in silver, copper and lead ores, and it is usually economically possible, as well as environmentally desirable, to extract the antimony from these ores when they are smelted. Most of the antimony mined each year comes from China, which supplies over three-quarters of the world total. The remainder is from Russia, South Africa, Tajikistan, Bolivia, and a few other countries. Some antimony is produced as a by-product of smelting ores of other metals, mainly gold, copper and silver, in countries such as the United States, Canada, and Australia. No mines are currently producing antimony ore in the U.S., but important amounts are yielded as a by-product of copper and silver mining. Numerous stibnite deposits occur in Idaho, Montana and Nevada, but most are worked out. Recycling of old lead-acid batteries (such as automobile batteries) contributes to U.S. antimony production. http://www.antimon ynet.com (Sep 6, 2007 | post #1)

The ancients may have occasionally produced pure antimony from its ore stibnite, and medieval alchemists have left recipes for preparation of the pure metal. However, it was not actually recognized as a separate element until the mid-1400?s, when chemistry as a science began to take shape. The French chemist, Nicolas Lemery, is known to have performed some of the earliest studies on antimony. The name antimony is derived from the Greek words anti and monos, which together mean not alone, because it rarely occurs naturally in pure form. Its chemical symbol, Sb, is derived from the Latin word stibium, which was the name of the most common antimony mineral, stibnite. http://www.antimon ynet.com (Sep 6, 2007 | post #1)
PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS: Color is tin-white to a steel gray which can tarnish to darker grays. Luster is metallic but the tarnish will often dull the luster. Transparency: Crystals are opaque. Crystal System is trigonal; bar 3 2/m Crystal Habits include pseudocubic rhombohedral crystals. More commonly found massive, botryoidal, lamellar and radiating. Cleavage is perfect in one direction (basal). Fracture is uneven. Hardness is 3 - 3.5 Specific Gravity is 6.6 - 6.7+ (heavy for a metallic mineral) Streak is tin-white to gray. Associated Minerals include sphalerite, stibnite and nickeline. Other Characteristics: Does not have a garlic odor. Notable Natural Occurrences include Chihuahua, Mexico; Wolfe Co., Quebec, Canada and Kern Co., California, USA. Best Field Indicators are density, softness, color, crystal habits, lack of smell and associations. more about please click http://www.antimon ynet.com (Aug 16, 2007 | post #1)
