Vanadium (V)

Vanadium (V) is an item and element added by MineChem. It has the atomic number 23 and the attributes Stable, Transition Metal and Stable. It is used to synthesize Emeralds, respectively Block of Emerald (see Usage).

As upgrade for the Polytool, Scandium increases the mining speed as a shovel (+8), but decreases the the mining speed as axe and for ores (-4).

Recipe
Since it is an element, it can not be synthesized. However, it can be extracted from many materials, such as Stone, with the Chemical Decomposer. It can also be produced with the Chemical Fusion and Fission Chambers.

Chemical Bucket
Vanadium (V) can be stored in space-saving chemical buckets.

Vanadium in the real world
Real Vanadium is a blue-silvery-grey solid and an element of the transition metals. The largest application is the steel industry to increase the toughness and structural robustness.
