Indium Observances

MetalsCost Editorial Thursday, September 3, 2026 In 9 days

MetalsCost Indium Day

MetalsCost marks September 3 for indium. Ferdinand Reich and Hieronymous Theodor Richter discovered it in 1863 during spectral analysis of zinc ore, but no single day within that year was verified, so this date is an evenly-spaced content-calendar placeholder.

MetalsCost Editorial Day — not an official international or industry observance. No single verified discovery or founding date exists for this metal, so MetalsCost assigned an evenly-spaced content-calendar date rather than inventing a claimed "day."
