Saarela, Territorial com- missioner of mines. A counter known as a ‘“prospect- ometer” has been developed by the Radiac Company of New York, which has proved highly successful In Colorado, Utah and Ontario, he said, Geological Survey officials tried the device out first, andreporfed that 200 mile an hour cruises could pick up radioactive deposits. A gas known as radon escapes from ra- dioactive zones, and an air intake In the aircraft’s nose passes the counter, allowing a count to be taken. A second devise, a ‘“prospecto- scope” for air use is said to have 30 times the sensitivity of ordi- nary Geiger counters. A device to hook up on an auto- mcble, with two Geiger tubes, has also been tested by the Geological Survey, and at speeds of 30 miles an hour has proved effective.
