Wasium was the suggested name of a chemical element found by J. F. Bahr. [1] [2] The name was derived from the House of Vasa the Royal House of Sweden.
In 1862 Bahr analysed the mineral Orthite— Allanite-( Y)—from the Norwegian island Rönsholm and found an oxide which he concluded contained a new element. In the following years several articles were published making clear that the wasium oxide was a mixture of several other elements. [3] [4] [5]
Wasium was said by M. Bahr to exist in Norwegian orthite and orthite from Ytterby. Bahr also said that it existed on the island of Raenshohm. [6] Wasium was supposedly found in the mineral wasite, which is a form of allanite. [7]
