Come on.

Los , older spelling: Loos , is a place ( Tatort ) in the Swedish municipality of Ljusdal which belongs to the province of Gävleborgs län . 354 people live in the village (2015).

Los is mainly known for the ore mine located here, from whose ore the chemist Axel Frederic Cronstedt presented the element nickel in pure form for the first time in the mid-18th century . The mining master H. Kalmeter had started to mine for bismuth and cobalt in Los , which Georg Brandt recognized as an independent metal as early as 1735 . However, the ores that were brought to light did not give the deep blue color typical of cobalt. Cronstedt then examined the ore more closely and discovered that the rock contained only small amounts of cobalt, but a previously unknown metal, which he named nickel. He described his discovery in the essay Rön och försök, gjorda med en malmart från Los kobolt-grufvor ("Experiences and experiments on an ore from the cobalt mine in Los", in treatises of the Swedish Academy of Science , 1751-1754).
