ArabiaWeather.com - Scientists at the German University of Mining and Technology Freiburg revealed a new technique for extracting minerals from plants , after they were able to extract the rare metal germanium from corn and sunflowers.

Scientists harvested plants that accumulate germanium on their roots, fermented them and prepared them to release biogas, making the germanium extraction method more efficient.

It is noteworthy that the germanium element was discovered in Germany , from which it acquired its name, and it is found in soil all over the world, but its extraction is very difficult, and it is one of the most popular minerals used in the manufacture of electronics, optics, and nutritional supplements.
