What is Zirconium

Zirconium is a highly versatile functional material that supports the industrial infrastructure

Zirconium is a type of rare metal, which is general term for metal resources that are industrially important but have low production volumes or are difficult to mine and refine. As it has been designated as a specified critical mineral in Japan and the United States, its supply disruption would pose risks to all industries.
