THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesdey, November 18, 1958 | 1st Shipment Uranium Oxide MARY KATHLEEN, Queens- land, Australia (Reuters) -- The first shipment of an $89,600,000 purchase of uranium oxide mined _ [from ore at this desert ouptost 'has been sent to Britain. In the next few years, the Mary Kathleen mine, the richest ura- anism outcrop so far discovered in Australia, will provide Brit- ain's atomic energy authority with tons of this atomic age fuel. The search for uranium in Aus- tralia was in full swing when in July, 1954, two prospectors, Nor- man McConachy and Clem Wal- ton, stumbled upon this mountain of uranium ore now valued at more than $112,000,000. They were on a weekend trip at the time and were driving along a dry creek bed 40 miles from Mt. Isa when a loose plug lead stopped their truck. While Walton repaired the fault, McConachy switched on his gei- ger counter. A reading was re- corded. As McConachy climbed up a cliff face, the counter "went crazy." He knew then that they had struck it rich. Hl NAMED AFTER WIFE ll Just how rich they and the six partners who joined the syndicate could only guess. They staked y |their claim and McConachy amed the area Mary Kathleen after his wife who had died a few weeks previously. It was a desolale area, The landscape was of red earth, mono- lithic outcrops of grotesquely shaped rocks, scrub trees and wa- ter courses that were dry for nine months of the year, Overhead, hawks waited to pounce on the carcass of any beast that had strayed from sur- rounding cattle ranches and died in a household here with a cat, |of thirst or hunger. with which it plays hide-and-| The transformation of the area seek. began in 1956.

Russia Fails "No Scare" Berlin Feels BERLIN (Reuters) -- Willi Brandt, mayor of West Berlin, says Russia's attempt to frigh- ten the West by proposing to hand over control of East Ber- fin to East Germany "'can be re- garded as having failed." Brandt was referring to a new war of nerves touched off last Monday by Soviet Pemier Nik- #a Khrushchev, who said Russia intended to end four-power con- trol. of Berlin by handing over Russian power to East Germany. West Berlin was quiet today after an anxious week climaxed Friday when three U.S. Army trucks were seized for 8% hours at a Berlin checkpoint on their way to West Germany. In East Germany, brass bands and loud speakers blared as voters went through the formality of endorsing) a Communist list of candidates in general elections. American, British and French| military trains have passed through Fast Germany territory singe Friday without incident. An Allied spokesman said there had been no further attempts to hold up¥oad traffic. STRANGE PAIR | KINGSTON, Ont.
