There were factual errors as to location of the "Ytterby quarry" (refer to the page in Swedish). Also note that there is another "Ytterby" village in Swedish, in a totally different part of the country. - I also corrected the formula for Ytterbium, and added formulae for Gadolinium, Holmium and Thulium. The Swedish page does not mention Gadolinium, but includes Scandium, but I'm uncertain about what is correct. Ake Torngren 22:06, 2 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Still the coordinates were wrong. Corrected the coordinates today.Uwezi (talk) 22:13, 4 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I also want to know whether Sc or Gd is found in Ytterby, or both of them or neither of them. In Chinese Wikipedia, the article mentions Sc instead of Gd.　--Dqwyy (Talk)^C _{from zhWP (頁|論|獻)} 06:51, 15 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Wasn't holmium also isolated from stones in this quarry? And subsequently named after the nearby city of Stockholm? If anything, this element is closely related to the four "Ytterby" metals. Steinbach (talk) 14:15, 16 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Could be. Holmium doesn't say, although I don't think it rules it out either. A cite would be good. —Mark Dominus (talk) 16:29, 16 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Was there anything else mined at that place? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.14.153.66 (talk) 06:31, 23 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

university there, though, not Ytterby. — 109.228.176.49 (talk) 13:58, 1 July 2022 (UTC) 109.228.176.49 (talk) 13:58, 1 July 2022 (UTC)[reply
