Can we get a map of tungsten (W) next time?

You mean Wolfram (T)?

Fun fact: Tungsten ist W/Volfram in Norwegian, Danish and Swedish where its English name, tung sten meaning "heavy stone", originates from.

Just to clarify, Swedish for "heavy stone" is literally "tung sten".

I don't know if it came around for non Scandinavians.
