Scandium is usually found with rare earth and uranium compounds. One by-product of these metals is scandium oxide (Sc2O3) and it usually traded in this form. To obtain metallic scandium, the oxide is first converted to a fluoride and then reduced using calcium.

What is scandium made from?
Scandium is an metallic element. Since it is an element is not made from anything else. Scandium can be found on earth, the sun and the stars.
