		<summary type="html">&lt;p&gt;basic page&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;[[File:E and Klm.gif|350px|thumb|right|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Young’s modulus and the lattice-scaled stiffness&lt;br /&gt;
for selected materials&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; – See page [[lattice scaled stiffness]] for details.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cerium is not the most abundant element. But also not extremely rare.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cerium is possibly of interest for early primitive [[force applying mechanosynthesis]] &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
as CeO&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; has a particularly high [[lattice scaled stiffness]]. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The [[lattice scaled stiffness]] of pyrite FeS &amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; is still a bit higher.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
CeO&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; is cubic, space group: Fm3m, #225&lt;br /&gt;
Natural occuring as the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;cerianite&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
solid solution mixing with Thorium substituting for cerium. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Since ThO&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; has the same structure it seems likely that &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
the whole range of [[checkerboard compound]]s should be stable and accessible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Natural thorium is rather weakly radioactive (like natural uranium) &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
thus safely as a solid non dusting mineral with a bit of care.&lt;br /&gt;
