History
Indium Corporation was known as "The Indium Corporation of America" in 1934. For many years the founders/scientists Dr. William S. Murray and Daniel Gray researched the metal called indium, hoping they would find some new ways to commercialize the metal. After several years of trial and error, they discovered methods for obtaining indium and how to change it chemically. The first breakthrough was in 1934 when the company developed indium plating for aircraft engine bearings.
In the mid to late 1970s, the Huari Huari zinc mine was the principal source of indium for Indium Corporation
