Tungstenium
English: Wolfram.
‘The mountaineer’
Tungsten is an unknown remedy. I did a dream proving at the SHO college, a report of which follows below. Chabbra (1995) has also done a proving.
Signature
The name is derived from the Swedish words ‘tung’ (heavy) and ‘sten’ (stone). It was discovered in 1783. It is sometimes called Wolfram, hence its chemical symbol ‘W’.
The wire is used in lightbulbs because of its high heat resistance. Tungsten has the highest melting point of all the elements, 3410 degrees C. It gets used in nuclear reactors for this same reason.
Protective shields and harnesses, as well as cutting and drilling instruments are made out of Tungsten because of its hardness. Tungsten increases the elasticity and the cutting properties of steel.
