The ` uranium <'derived from the pitchblende ore was used to make the bomb that helped to knock Japan out of the war, Oniy .other known deposits are in Belgian Congo, South America and Australia. One of factors which kept Germany from perfecting its atomic bomb was thatnone of : these sources of uranium was available to them.. LOUIS ARTHUR CUNNINGHAM CHAPTER .
