Abstract
The reduction of niobium pentoxide and niobium trichloride by calcium and magnesium has been studied. The available niobium compounds varied both in origin and composition, and thus a systematic study of the process was not possible. However, the results obtained indicate that ductile nlobium can be produced from pure niobium pentoxide or niobium trichloride by calcium reduction. (auth)
