Antimony is a chemical element with the symbol **Sb** (from the Latin "stibium") and atomic number **51**. It is a metalloid, which means it has properties of both metals and non-metals. Antimony is known for its brittle nature and is often found in nature primarily in the form of various sulfide minerals, particularly stibnite (Sb₂S₃).
