Boron is a chemical element with symbol B and atomic number 5. Produced entirely by cosmic ray spallation and supernovae and not by stellar nucleosynthesis, it is a low-abundance element in the Solar system and in the Earth's crust.12 Boron is concentrated on Earth by the water-solubility of its more common naturally occurring compounds, the borate minerals. These are mined industrially as evaporites, such as borax and kernite. The largest known boron deposits are in Turkey, the largest producer of boron minerals.
Elemental boron is a metalloid that is found in small amounts in meteoroids but chemically uncombined boron is not otherwise found naturally on Earth. Industrially, very pure boron is produced with difficulty because of refractory contamination by carbon or other elements. Several allotropes of boron exist: amorphous boron is a brown powder; crystalline boron is silvery to black, extremely hard (about 9.5 on the Mohs scale), and a poor electrical conductor at room temperature. The primary use of elemental boron is as boron filaments with applications similar to carbon fibers in some high-strength materials.

Get the red baron mug.Tough on the outside and soft on the inside. A horseman at heart, he loves to be rough and rowdy. Very attractive and gentlemen like but has a secret side that insinuates naughtiness. Obsessed with pleasing people this person will forgo his own emotions and feelings to make someone else feel better; sometimes this is at another, outside parties expense. With so many sexual complexes, he could make Freud go crazy. Attracted to mom's (perhaps even his own) he feels guilty when it comes to any sort of sexual encounter (generally after the act). Can be easily mistaken for gay because of his bi-curious, homoerotic tendancies. Overall good guy but has a lot of issues that you may not want to try and figure out.
