Cobalt is rare, and yet it's used to create lithium ion batteries. Lithium ion batteries are used in almost every piece of battery-powered tech on the planet.

A material being rare doesn't mean its use isn't common.

Hell, even helium is technically rare considering we're actively in danger of running out of it, but it's still used for fucking party balloons.
