:56:00
Right.
:56:02
Ready. Read.
:56:12
Two, same as always.
Done nothing wrong so far.

:56:16
Not that I can see.
:56:18
We know then that...
:56:19
the pitch blende with
the uranium and thorium in it

:56:21
comes to eight and that
the uranium alone reads two.

:56:25
I am going to test the thorium.
:56:26
From the same amount of pitch blende?
:56:27
Of course, and put in exactly
the same case

:56:29
close the case
charged the electrometer.

:56:32
Now we find out how much energy
the rays in thorium have?

:56:34
Right.
:56:36
Ready. Read.
:56:44
Two
:56:50
I don't understand.
There must be a mistake.

:56:55
When the uranium and thoarum are
in the pitch blende

:56:57
the reading is eight.
:56:59
But individually
they only total four.

:57:03
Have you checked
all the other elements

:57:04
in the pitch blende?
:57:06
I checked every elements.
There is no the result.

:57:09
Every elements in existence.
:57:11
Uranium and thorium are
the only elements that give off rays.

:57:15
Why do they give off twice
:57:16
as much when they are
in the pitch blende as they do

:57:18
as they were tested separately?
:57:20
Where are those
four missing points?

:57:23
That is what I don't understand.
:57:25
I don't understand.
:57:27
You make the chemical analysis of
:57:29
what is content
in the pitch blende, didn't you?

:57:31
Of course. Could I see it?
:57:32
Yes.
:57:38
Uranium oxide - 75%
:57:40
Chlorium Oxide - 13%
Lead sulfide - 3%

:57:42
Silicon dioxide - 2%
Calcium oxide - 3%

:57:45
Barium oxide - 2%
Iron oxide - 1%

:57:48
Magnesium oxide - 1/990%
:57:50
other extraneous elements
1/1000%
