We think of crystals as the gold standard of frequency generation. However, if you want real precision, you need something either better than a crystal or something that will correct for tiny errors — ...

Rubidium is a silvery-white and very soft metal — and one of the most highly reactive elements on the periodic table. Rubidium has a density about one and a half times that of water and is solid at ...

You know when you dial a number, and a man reads you the exact time at the tone? That precise timekeeping starts at the Naval Observatory in Washington, D.C. NPR's Linda Wertheimer takes a tour. We're ...

Robert Bunsen and Gustav Kirchhoff discovered the element Rubidium in 1861 with the help of a spectroscope while analyzing a mineral called lepidolite. When the mineral was heated, Bunsen and ...

Rubidium (Rb) was discovered in 1861 by physicist Gustav Kirchhoff — perhaps better known for his work on electrical circuits — together with chemist Robert Bunsen, in Heidelberg. Using their newly ...

Chinese scientists have created a new method to extract ultra-pure rubidium chloride from brine that contains small amounts of this metal. This is an important step forward for the country’s critical ...

Granada Gold Mine (TSXV:GGM) has provided the first rubidium resource estimate for its flagship gold project of the same name in Quebec. The estimate is based on the mineralization in one drill hole ...

Chinese scientists have achieved a breakthrough in the commercial extraction of the critical metal rubidium directly from salt lake brine, potentially slashing dependence on imports – mostly from ...

Rubidium could be the next key player in oxide-ion conductors. Researchers have discovered a rare rubidium (Rb)-containing oxide-ion conductor with exceptionally high conductivity. Identified through ...

International Lithium ( ($TSE:ILC) ) has shared an update. International Lithium Corp. reported that all resolutions at its 2025 annual general ...
