Nickel is a very important metal with a remarkable historical background and unique potential for future use. It has been known as a chemical element for approximately two hundred years, and its practical use in various alloys dates back to ancient times. Examples of its use have been found in the historical development of peoples in countries such as Asia, China, Egypt, and the Caucasus dating back as far as three thousand years BC.<\/p>\n

This metal, like iron, held a special place even in prehistoric culture (the Iron Age). They were associated with meteoric and native iron. Many metal objects discovered in Egypt were made around 4,000 BC. Meteoric iron contains nickel, reaching approximately 60 percent. Naturally, the material was used haphazardly, without proper knowledge of its properties or production methods.<\/p>\n\n\t\n\t\n

It wasn't until the late eighteenth century, when the natural sciences, especially chemistry, began to develop rapidly, that a large number of metals were introduced into human economic activity. Nickel was discovered as an element in the middle of that century.<\/p>\n

It was only in the mid-19th century that this metal was recognized as very important:<\/p>\n
