Metals have been prized for their unique characteristics for millennia, when the Stone Age ended with human metalworking. Obviously, since then techniques for refining, identifying, and utilising metals have advanced. But, one of the primary ways to distinguish metals remains – and that is whether they are ferrous or not. But what does ferrous mean, and why is it important to know if metals are ferrous? The Lab explains answers to these questions (and more) below…
