This rare metal was discovered by John Stevens in the depths of Africa. The metal looks alot light chromed steel. It's reflective properties when light is shined above it are outstanding. The density of the material is 3 to 4 times the strength of steel.
It is not well known in the commerical industry. It is licenced exclusively to the British Goverment. John Stevens went to great lenghts to insure that the metal was not being used for Military purposes, in the contract with the goverment, there is a clause that says 'If it is discovered that Steviomium was used in the crafting of aircraft, land craft, or weapons for the purpose of Warfare, this exclusive licence will be nil and void and the British Goverment will forfeit all rights to future shipments of metal.'
