Tantalum has been hammered into
sheets, which are extremely hard. Sir
William Crookes, F. r. s., states that
"a hole had to be bored through a
plate of this metal and diamond
drill was used, revolving at the rate
of 5000 revolutions per minute. This
wh1rling force was continued cease

it was found that only small depres-

and it was a moot point which had
suffered the more damage-the dta'
