Present in emeralds,

this lightweight, strong metal

is used in x-rays and in alloys

to make them tougher.

An element of ambiguities.

Essential to life on earth,

fuel for bullets and bombs.

This metal is truly everywhere: in your

paper, your chewing gum, the building

you live and even in your bones.

Used primarily in fireworks

and flares, strontium is always

the light of the party.

Looks like just another metal,

but cleans your car’s engine and

saves you from the x-rays.
