The earliest personnal approach co the sampic uill be forty seconds follo ring irradiacion, when the separation of I

Thu sample level prior to separation will be of the order of 300 millicurie:; (ma::imun) of fission products, producing a level of 2 P/hr at a distance of one feat.
At this time the silver will be separated from the volution witJt.
