Atoms have electrons that need to be distributed somehow, even Cobalt. Ok so where are these electrons in an atom of Co?
In the case of Cobalt the number of electons per shell is 2,8,15,2. Besides the distribution of electrons there is a lot of funny facts about Cobalt that most don't know. Let me show you...

Description
Hard, ductile, lustrous bluish-gray metal. Exists in the earth's curst in cocentrations of about 25 ppm. It has remarkable magnetic properties.Atomic Symbol
CoSources
Occurs in compounds with arsenic, oxygen and sulfur as in cobaltine (CoAsS) and linneite (Co3S4). Pure cobalt is obtained as a byproduct of refining nickel, copper and iron.Atomic Mass
