Austrian radium monopoly eyed in Joachimsthal mines
The Austrian State plans to buy Count Sylva Tarouca's pitchblende mines near Joachimsthal for 2 250 000 kronen about 457 000 dollars. The deal would grant a practical radium production monopoly in Austria and perhaps the world, given the district’s rich deposits and potential output up to five grammes of radium annually.
