The name is derived from the legendary Greek figure King Tantalus. Tantalus was a Greek mythological figure, most famous for his eternal punishment in Tartarus. He was made to stand in a pool of water beneath a fruit tree with low branches, with the fruit ever eluding his grasp, and the water always receding before he could take a drink. He was the father of Pelops, Niobe and Broteas, and was a son of Zeus and the nymph Plouto. Thus, like other heroes in Greek mythology such as Theseus and the Dioskouroi, Tantalus had both a hidden, divine parent and a mortal one.
 
Uses
 
Tantalum causes no immune response in mammals, so has found wide use in the making of surgical implants. It can replace bone, for example in skull plates; as foil or wire it connects torn nerves; and as woven gauze it binds abdominal muscle.
 
It is very resistant to corrosion and so is used in equipment for handling corrosive materials. It has also found uses as electrodes for neon lights, AC/DC rectifiers and in glass for special lenses.
 
Tantalum alloys can be extremely strong and have been used for turbine blades, rocket nozzles and nose caps for supersonic aircraft.
 
One of the main uses of tantalum is in the production of electronic components. An oxide layer which forms on the surface of tantalum can act as an insulating (dielectric) layer. Because tantalum can be used to coat other metals with a very thin layer, a high capacitance can be achieved in a small volume. This makes tantalum capacitors attractive for portable electronics such as mobile phones.
 
Tantalum is not included as noble metals despite the fact that it is very resistant to corrosion.
 
Tantalum belongs to an important class of metals known as Refractory metals. Refractory metals are extraordinarily resistant to heat and wear. Included in this class are the five metals Tungsten, Molybdenum, Niobium, Tantalum and Rhenium.
 
Metaphysical
 
Tantalum can be used to deflect and protect against negativity. Acts to preserve one from being victimized by the energy of another. Has been used as an energy deflector and is an excellent stone for those who may be exposed to excessive amounts of radiation. Provides an increase in physical endurance and emotional equilibrium.
 
Tantalum is a great for the stimulus of creativity, ideas and inspirational images and the joining of the thought with the action of making it become a reality.
 
It is a wonderful stone when used for grounding the First Chakra. It allows for emotional well being and physical stability. It works with the First Chakra in bringing us to a central place of security and balance with our family and sense of self. It can be utilized in the stimulation of trigger points for musculoskeletal, coronary disorders and anxiety.
