This robust transition metal exhibits a distinctive steel-grey to white hue and is renowned for its exceptional hardness and weight. Widely sourced from ores like wolframite and scheelite, tungsten showcases unparalleled physical attributes, notably holding the title for the highest melting point among non-alloyed metals and ranking second only to carbon in the entire periodic table.
