aha... close..

stellite is niobium steel -- stainless highly heat resistant. Delor was the mining manufacturing company which made the highly superior turbine blades which made the CDN GE turbine jet engines have such heat strength, and high acceleration.. far more resistant to damage than today's fragile constructions..

makes great kitchen knives.. good competition to moly.. don't know about comparitive cold strength or malleabiity, brittleness.

Neodymium is the major component of coffee mugs used in peruvian cat houses.
