SeleniumSelenium, a lustrous-gray metal, is named after Selene, the Greek goddess of the moon. It was first discovered in 1817 by J.S. Berzelius in Fahlun, Sweden, as part of the red residue found in sulfuric acid prepared at a pyrite mining operation. Selenium is primarily recovered from anode slimes in the electrolytic refining of copper and is used in g [..]
