Molybdenum is one magic metal and a kind of rare metal. Molybdenum is an important basic material to the development of new and high technology and national modernization.

With the development of science and technology, molybdenum Applications is widely，in iron and steel industry, non-ferrous metal industry, nuclear industry, aerospace industry, chemical industry, electronic industry and other fields because of its unique properties. In addition, various rising usages of molybdenum are constantly excavated, which further explains that molybdenum is one magic metal.
In this paper, we will discuss molybdenum’s discovery process to allow readers to more clearly understand molybdenum: one magic metal.

There is no metal form molybdenum under nature conditions and molybdenum mainly exists in the molybdenite and distributes in the nature. The average abundance is 1.3mg/kg in the crust. In eighteenth century, the Greeks called galena as “molydena” and they mistaken molybdenite for galena. In 1778, Carl Wilhelm Scheele decomposed Molybdenite with nitric acid and got molybdic acid, molybdenum salt. In the same year, people made molybdenum oxide and proven that molybdenum exists. In 1782, Peter Jacob Hjelm successfully restored the oxide and got black metal powder and that is molybdenum.
