There is said to be about 0.0015% of gallium found in the Earth's crust with no known concentrated supplies of it
The electron configuration of gallium is: [Ar]3d104s24p1.
Mercury is the only metal that is a liquid at room temperature, despite it's high density.
94 kinds of atoms occur naturally on earth

Yes, gallium does have naturally occurring isotopes. The most common stable isotopes of gallium are gallium-69 and gallium-71, with gallium-69 being more abundant at about 60% and gallium-71 about 40%.
Halogens naturally occur in the gaseous state. Examples of halogens are fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, and astatine.

Gallium does not occur naturally in its pure form put as a trace salt. Gallium is in the same period as Aluminium. Gallium arsenide is a super conductor. GaAs Gallium nitride is a semiconductor. GaN Galinstan is an alloy with indium and tin. Gallium is used medically to trace iron uptake. It also seeps into the crystal structures of other metals and thus change their properties when forming an alloy.
Elemental gallium does not occur in nature, but as the gallium(III) salt in trace amounts in bauxite and zinc ores. Its abundance in the Earth's crust is approximately 16.9 ppm. Gallium is found and extracted as a trace component in bauxite and to a small extent from sphalerite. The amount extracted from coal, diaspore and germanite in which gallium is also present is negligible. The United States Geological Survey estimates gallium reserves to exceed 1 million tonnes, based on 50 ppm by weight concentration in known reserves of bauxite and zinc ores.
in solids i think
At room temperature protactinium is a solid metal.
Gallium nitrite (Ga(NO2)3) is a compound formed by the elements gallium and nitrite ions. It is a nitrite salt of gallium, where gallium has a +3 oxidation state. Gallium nitrite is a crystalline solid that is not commonly found in nature.
The electron configuration of gallium is: [Ar]3d104s24p1.
Metals typically occur in their native form, meaning they are found naturally as pure elements in the Earth's crust. This is because metals are stable in their metallic form due to their high reactivity with other elements.
