Titanium was discovered in 1791 by an amateur geologist and Anglican Minister William Gregor. (I so appreciate people who multi task well.) If you've not played with it, I encourage it's exploration. It has the highest strength to weight ratio of any metal. While normally a flat gun metal gray, if heated with even a simple butane torch it will patina into a rainbow of colors. (You'll be amazed!) Unlike copper, the patina will remain stable for years.
