Lawrencium was discovered in 1961 by Albert Ghiorsio. It is a synthetic. Element numbered 103 in the Periodic Table and was produced by bombarding various isotopes of californium with boron^10 and boron^11 atoms. It has only been produced in miniscule quantities for scientific research applications only. It has no practical application for 2 reasons:- 1. It is radioactive properties. 2. It is an unstable element with a short half life; its longest lived isotope, ^262Lr has a half life of 216 minutes. You could not find it outside of a laboratory.
