Answer 2

Hafnium is primarily obtained as a by-product of zirconium production. It is found in most zirconium minerals, and it is extracted by various chemical processes like solvent extraction or ion exchange. Hafnium is a relatively rare element in the Earth's crust.

Answer 3

It is believed that hafnium was discovered in Norway. Its discovery is credited to George Charles von Hevesey and Dirk Coster.

Answer 4

Hafnium is associated only with some zirconium minerals. Hafnium minerals are not known and very probable they are impossible because the great similarity between hafnium and zirconium.

Answer 5

Hafnium is a by-product of nuclear-grade zirconium production.

Answer 6

Hafnium has not minerals; it is associated with zirconium minerals (approx. 2 %).
