Abstract
An examination of the specific activities and yields of 28Mg obtained by the irradiation in HIFAR of a number of mixtures of lithium carbonate with either magnesium carbonate or magnesium oxide showed that up to 0.25 mCi of 28Mg at approximately 6 mCi g-1 of magnesium could be obtained. A separation procedure based on the precipitation of magnesium hydroxide is described and the results of a number of preparations by this method are presented.
