All elements have their origin in either the formation of the universe or the steady radioactive decay of other elements. Tellurium (Te, #52) is not a common element in the earth's crust, but ores of tellurium can be found in the American west. The town of Telluride, Colorado is named for the natural deposits of tellurium ore found nearby.
Thulium (Tm) was discovered in 1879 by Per Teodor Cleve (1840-1905) at the University of Uppsala, where he was Professor of General and Agricultural Chemistry.
In the Earth's crust, it is as rare as platinum, but it is in abundance in space.
Tellurium exist rarely in elemental form, more frequently as gold tellurides, associated with sulfur in some metal sulfides minerals.
