The Platinum Cannon Shipwreck
A modern tale of Alchemy

At this time, all of the scheduled experiments were satisfactorily completed except for the determination of the secondary and possible tertiary decay. This was the most difficult step to take at Lee Smith's facility, for his laboratory lacked any sophisticated radiation monitoring equipment. The only thing we could determine was that immediately after ignition, the radiation was in the order of one magnitude higher than twenty?four hours later. The only equipment available was a field survey meter and the repetitiveness was not sufficient to develop a decay curve. A decay curve allows for the calculation of the radioactive half?life. This radioactive half?life factor permits identification of the possible new radioactive isotopes that were created. However, I still considered this phase of testing successful due to the positive identification of new radioactive isotopes. This was the conclusion of the testing activity scheduled in association with Gold Spinners International, Mr. Robinson and Mr. Smith.

The next phase was to relocate to Chicago for data assimilation, formalization of the theoretical processes, recording (data sampling) of new data and determination of the next phase of research. After review of the data, I was able to computer illustrate the decay chain for approximately twenty percent of the known isotopes.

Next, I designed a series of experiments which varied with starting chemicals and accelerated ignition principles. As experimental and physical data was finalized, it was date-stamped and stored with attorney Alan Loiben in Chicago, Illinois to insure propriety of discovery. Alan was the focal point of my archives throughout this and subsequent discoveries.

The next phase was a quasi?clandestine experimental program which will never be seen within the etiquette section of scientific journals. This was in Hot Springs, Arkansas where I, with the assistance of Mr. Michael Boyd, Deer Park, Texas and Mr. Frank Mitchell, Sante Fe, Tennessee set up a six million BTU furnace to excite the nuclear reaction at a higher temperature.

I think now it would be good to interject that at this time there was no doubt we had transmutation. Also, it was now definitely defined by experimental evidence as to the type of nuclear occurrence we were experiencing. This gave me a realistic opinion as to the "Trigger Mechanism."

Further, there was no doubt that for some reason certain isotopes were being selectively fissioned. I say "selectively fissioned" because all primary fission components were alpha particles, i.e., charged helium. With this known fact, it was easy to calculate the energies generated from the nuclear reactions. It also was not difficult to determine that upscaling of the reaction to larger amounts of material will cause enormous amounts of energy to be released unless care was exercised. This, coupled with the fact that even though over fifty experiments had been conducted to date, I accepted the fact that, other than my theories, I knew little of the reaction limitations.

Also, from the epidemiological studies of the deceased doctors, Jack Keller and Dr. Becker, over sixty percent of the people associated with this technology in the past had (or has in the case of Keller) leukemia. This form of rare cancer is known to be caused by a certain type of radiation.

During the first phase of Arkansas testing, I used an unorthodox principle by making two changes at once. I took the upgraded chemical matrix developed in Florida and increased the volume by a f actor of ten. Instead of using a torch for ignition, I put the chemicals in a carbon graphite crucible and placed it within the furnace. Then I brought the temperature up to approximately 350°C (660 degrees F), at which time an explosion occurred. Vast amounts of gases and slag escaped from the furnace. However, the results were phenomenal! Below is the before and after comparison:
