Stibium is the Latin name of the element Antimony(Sb) which is a metalloid.
There are several different Latin names for it; among them are stibium (Latin for "mark," because the sulfide was used as a primitive eyeliner) which is where the symbol comes from, and the medieval Latin name antimonium (there are differing theories as to how this name originated) which is where the English name comes from.
Sb is the chemical symbol of antimony (stibium).
Two metalloids with symbols not based on English names are antimony (Sb) and germanium (Ge). Their symbols are derived from their Latin names: stibium for antimony and germania for germanium.
It's a transition metal.
The element is antimony, with the symbol Sb derived from its Latin name "stibium". Antimony is often used in lead-acid batteries to improve their performance and reduce water consumption.

The electronic configuration of stibium (antimony) is: [Kr]4d10 5s2 5p3.
