  The nuclear magnetic relaxation in scandium metal is investigated at liquid
helium temeprature for both single crystal and powder samples. The obtained
temperature and field dependence of the Korringa constant are described by the
means of the spin uctuation theory. It is shown that one of the reason for the
high field decreasing of the relaxation rate is the quenching of spin
uctuations. The other possible reason is the magnetic impurity influence. The
reasons of the existing variations of the Korringa constant are discussed. The
possible sources of non-single exponential relaxation are investigated.
