:''"Group 8" redirects here. For the Swedish organization, see Group 8 (Sweden).''
A 'Group 8 element' is one in the series of elements in group 8 (IUPAC style) in the periodic table, which consists of the transition metals iron ('Fe'), ruthenium ('Ru'), osmium ('Os') and hassium ('Hs').
All of these elements are classed in Group 8 because their valence shells hold eight electrons. Hassium can only be produced in the laboratory and has not been found in nature.
