1 1 1 1 and the giant punch board This is a nuclear reactor. And neutrons from the tons of pure uranium metal inserted in these holes produce radioisotopes — the strange and wonderful prizes of the atomic age. While these man-made radioactive materials have been available for only a short time in commercial quantities, they have already found a wide range of uses — in industry, in agriculture and in medicine where radioisotopes have practically replaced radium in the treatment of cancer. Every day new uses are being found for uranium in nuclear power developments. To meet these present and future needs, Anaconda has developed reserves of millions of tons of uranium ore. These reserves, together with new ore processing methods pioneered by Anaconda at its Bluewater, New Mexico plant, have made Anaconda America's leading producer of uranium concentrate. Other Anaconda products are also contributing to the expanding use of nuclear energy. Many are used in the actual production of radioisotopes, while lead — another metal produced in large quantity by Anaconda — is employed as radiation shielding whereever radioactive material is present. Anaconda's role in nuclear energy is typical of the way in which its extensive line of non-ferrous metals and metal products — the broadest combination offered industry today — is contributing to America's growth and progress. 5728oa The AnacondA Company The American Brass Company Anaconda Wire & Cable Company Andes Copper Mining Company Chile Copper Company Greene Cananea Copper Company Anaconda Aluminum Company Anaconda Sales Company International Smelting and Refining Company Broadcasting November 18, 1957 • Page 139
