Dr. James L. Marshall describes pitchblende (uranium ore) and the decay products of uranium to protactinium, actinium, and astatine and the decay product of astatine to francium. From the DVD "A Visit with Dr. Jim Marshall." The DVD is designed to be used as an educational tool; it contains information about each element and ores from the original mines of discovery. Experiments using the elements are included showing their spectra, magnetism, fluorescence, and mine source, as discussed in the book "Discovery of the Elements; a Search for the Fundamental Principles of the Universe, 2nd ed," by Dr. Marshall.
