Scientists have found/discovered a new mineral in far-east Russia that could revolutionise the future of the mining industry.
The mineral -- Nataliyamalikite -- is new, and did not exist before, explains Professor Joël Brugger, the lead author in a recently published paper in American Mineralogist.
It contains thallium, a rare heavy metal containing poison.
The new mineral was discovered in the Kamchatka Peninsula -- one of the most active volcanic zones in the world, featuring 160 volcanoes including 29 that are active.
