Read MoreHistory and Uses: Cadmium was discovered by Friedrich Strohmeyer, a German chemist, in 1817 while studying samples of calamine (ZnCO 3 ). When heated, Strohmeyer noticed that some samples of calamine glowed with a yellow color while other samples did not.
Read More2019-1-1 Cadmium is produced by mining, refining, or smelting of zinc, and is a lesser byproduct of the production of copper and lead (Bi et al., 2006). Therefore, cadmium is produced in relation to zinc, instead of through its direct production. Cadmium production almost doubled from 1950 to 1990, about 20,000 tons annually, while its consumption in ...

The source of these metals in soil is the mineralized vein, the mine dumps, the Asu River Shales and the minor basic intrusive. Mining of the Pb-Zn ores is responsible for the mobilisation of these metals into soil.

Read MoreHistory and Uses: Cadmium was discovered by Friedrich Strohmeyer, a German chemist, ... small amounts of cadmium are found in zinc ores and most of the cadmium produced today is obtained as a byproduct of mining and refining zinc. Cadmium is a poisonous metal and its use is somewhat limited for this reason. Like zinc, cadmium can be ...

Read MoreCadmium is a rare metal. The concentration of cadmium on the Earth is around 0.5 ppm (parts per million). Mostly it is present in the form of ores of zinc and sulfide. The sulfide ore of cadmium is termed as greenockite (CdS). Currently, cadmium is obtained from the mining, smelting and purification of ores of zinc sulfide, and copper sulfide.

Cadmium was discovered in 1817 by Freidrich Stromeyer, a Professor at the University of Göttingen, whilst heating samples of cadmia to produce the white compound, zinc oxide.
