Scandium is a natural chemical element; minerals containing scandium: thortveitite, euxenite, gadolinite. In the universe scandium is formed during the supernova nucleosynthesis (the so called r-process).
Scandium's atomic number is 21 on the Periodic Table. It is located in the fourth period after Calcium (Ca) and before Titanium (Ti). It is a Transition Metal in group 3B along with the progressively heavier elements Yttrium (Y), Lanthanum (La) and Actinium (Ac).
in nature: Scandium is associated in minerals with the rare earths metals or sometimes with uranium. The important minerals are: thortveitite, euxenite, gadolinite, kolbeckite.
as technical product: Scandium metal: ingots, lumps, powder, foil, plate, etc. - upon the request; also valable for alloys. Scandium compounds: oxide, iodide, sulphate, carbonate, chloride, oxalate, acetate, nitrate, fluotide, hydroxide - generally as powders.
Scandium is found in rare minerals, which are found in Scandinavia and Madagascar. These rare minerals include: thortveitite, euxenite, and gadolinite.

It's very rare, but its minerals can be found in the Scandinavian peninsula.

Scandium has the chemical symbol Sc and 21 is it's atomic number. A link is provided to the Wikipedia article on this (usually considered) rare earth element.
Scandium is a period 4 element.
Scandium is a very rare and expensive element. Scandium, scandium alloys and scandium compounds has important applications in science and technology.
Scandium is an extremely rare and expensive element.
are there any hazards or precautions that should be taken around the element scandium
The symbol if the chemical element Scandium are 1,2 or letter international agreed code for the chemical element, which usually derived from the name of the element.
Yes, scandium is a pure element.
Yes. scandium is hard to find. It is a rare element that is only mined from a few places in the whole world.
Scandium is, itself, an element and so there are no elements of scandium.
Scandium is element 21, and terbium is element 65.
There is no sensible answer to the question because scandium IS a transition element.
