Uses
The compound occurs in nature as the mineral cobalt spar or sphaerocobaltite. It is used in ceramics; in cobalt pigments; as a catalyst; as a temperature indicator; and in the preparation of other cobalt(II) salts. It also is added to soil to provide nutritional supplement in forage for cattle. Cobalt(II) carbonate is precursor to cobalt carbonyl, cobalt salts and blue pottery glazes such as delftware. It is used as an essential element in dietary supplements and also used in the manufacture of paints and pigments.
