New Atomic Age Approach Reveals Oil Secrets
At Atlantic City April 7, MIT scientists outlined an atomic age theory that crude oil forms from radioactive transformation of organic matter in earth. If valid, electronic detectors could locate new oil, and atomic plants might produce gasoline and other fuels. The presentation, by A Breger, Charles W Sheppard, and Virginia Burton, notes oil forms at surprisingly low temperatures, challenging the traditional plant and animal origin view. Disraeli, famed statesman and novelist, is noted as having written a successful novel at age 21.
