Everything Everywhere Daily - The Wonderful World of Tin

In the ancient world, only seven metals were identified and named: gold, silver, iron, lead, copper, mercury, and tin. 

Tin probably doesn’t rank up there with the other metals in terms of how interestingness….or usefulness. Nonetheless, tin was incredibly important to the ancient world and remains incredibly important today. 

In fact, tin is probably playing a role in your life right now, and you don’t even know it.

Learn more about the wonderful world of tin on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
