| Description |
Deutsch: Die Mine Shinkolobwe wurde von der belgischen Union Minière du Haut Katanga ausgebeutet. Der Großteil des im Manhattan-Projekt verwendeten Urans stammte aus dieser Mine, dank der Intuition von Edgar Sengier, dem Geschäftsführer der Union Minière du Haut Katanga, der geahnt hatte, dass Uran in Kriegszeiten wichtig sein würde, und 1939 1.000 Tonnen Uranerz in die Vereinigten Staaten importierte. Als er 1942 von den Leuten des Manhattan-Projekts kontaktiert wurde, verkaufte er ihnen den gesamten Bestand und nach der Renovierung der Shinkolobwe-Mine zwischen 1942 und 1944 30.000 Tonnen.
English: The Shinkolobwe mine was exploited by the Belgian Union Minière du Haut Katanga. The majority of the uranium used in the Manhattan Project came from that mine, thanks to the intuiton of Edgar Sengier, the CEO of the Union Minière du Haut Katanga, who had suspected that uranium would be important in war times and imported 1,000 tons of uranium ore in the United States in 1939. Contacted by the Manhattan Project people in 1942, he sold them the total stock and after refurbishment of the Shinkolobwe mine, sold them 30,000 ton between 1942 and 1944.
Français : La mine de Shinkolobwe était exploitée par l'Union Minière du Haut Katanga. La majorité de l'uranium utilisé dans le cadre du projet Manhattan provenait de cette mine, grâce à l'intuition d'Edgar Sengier, le PDG de l'Union Minière du Haut Katanga, qui s'était douté de l'importance de l'uranium en temps de guerre et avait importé 1 000 tonnes de minerai d'uranium aux États-Unis en 1939. Contacté par les responsables du projet Manhattan en 1942, il leur a vendu la totalité du stock et, après remise en état de la mine de Shinkolobwe, leur a vendu 30 000 tonnes entre 1942 et 1944. |
