London.-Radium is now being pro-
duced in appreciable quantities in the
east end of London
This announcement, which will
arouse considerable interest in the SCI
entifc world, was made by Sir William
Ramsay. who had the satisfaction Of
ehowing to a party at the radium fac
tory established In Thomas street,
Limehouse. by the st. Ives consoli-
dated mines, a sample of the precious
mineral which had been manufactured
on the spot
:, 1t will be remembered that 1t was on
the recommendation of Sir William
himself that the factory was built He
experimental with some high grade
pitchblende concentrate obtained from
the Trenwith mine, and reported that
he had recovered from this ore con-
siderable portion of radium in an ap-
proximately fair state"
So the factory at Limehouse was
erected for the manufacture of ra-
dium on commercial basis. and no
statement had been made as to the re-
suits of the enterprise until now. Up
to the present $500 milligrams of 10
per cent. radium Tor 500 milligrams of
pure radium) have been produced.
Arthur Schiff, director of the com
pany. informed a reporter that they
proposed to put this amount upon the
market in the course of day or two.
He thought 1T would fetch anything
from 10000 to 100000. I'VE shall
try to keep 1t In this country" he add
ed.
At present the radium is being
stored in a specially constructed safe
lined with lead and asbestos and re-
markable precautions are taken to in
sure its safety.
The process which is being adopted
At Limehouse is much more rapid than
any In use on the continent In de-
soribing this process Sir William Ram
saw said that the pitchblende ore was
delivered in concentrated form. The
uranium. and iron and uranium was
dissolved. and the next stage was to
precipitate the radium out Of the clear
liquid.
When precipitated the radium was
converted into radium bromide. Then'
by repeated crystallization this bro
mide was separated into various
grades of commercial STABILITY The
actual time occupied in getting the ra-
dfum liquors was a week, said SIT
William, and the capitalization which
went on afterward took a couple OF
months. The latest continental proc
ess which he saw described last week
occupied year.
As Illustrating the certainty oil the
process in use at Limehouse. he men
toned that OF $50 grams produced only
one milligram would be left behind in
the LIQUID. Up to now just over half
gram had been extracted at Lime
house. but the process is now going on
continuously and the works are laid
out to produce one gram month. So
far only five or six grams are known
to have been produced in the whole
world.
