Cobalt was discovered in Sweden. It was discovered by George Brandt in 1735. Brandt was attempting to prove that the ability of certain minerals to color glass blue was due to an unknown element and not to bismuth, as was commonly believed at the time.

Where was cobalt found?
Cobalt is an element that is not found free in nature. It is found in combination with arsenic, and also as a recoverable byproduct of copper and nickel refining because cobalt is "hiding" in those ores. The things we get cobalt from aren't particularly rare, and cobalt is recovered commercially in over a dozen countries. China and Finland are big producers, as are Norway, Canada, Zambia and Russia. A number of other countries produce commercial quantities. The Cobalt Development Institute has a handle on this information, and a link is provided to their resource page.

Metal alloyed with cobalt can withstand high temperatures are used in gas turbine engines and for cutting and machining steel.

Where is cobalt first invented?
Cobalt is not found as a native metal but generally found in the form of ores. Cobalt is usually not mined alone, and tends to be produced as a by-product of nickel and copper mining activities. The main ores of cobalt are cobaltite, erythrite, glaucodot, and skutterudite. Swedish chemist George Brandt (1694-1768) is credited with isolating cobalt circa 1735. He was able to show that cobalt was the source of the blue color in glass, which previously had been attributed to the bismuth found with cobalt. http://periodic.lanl.gov/elements/27.html
