Information
Manganese is another transition metal that is alloyed to form special steels.
There was once a story about how Manganese nodules (which are found in the deep
ocean and contain about 30% manganese) would be an incredibly useful resource,
but this actually turned out to be a cover story to hide an attempt to salvage
parts from a sunken Russian submarine. Be careful not to confuse Manganese with
Magnesium!

Blue, and Green company.
