Radioactive Steel
(mander.xyz)
A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
You won't get the same purity. Not because of worse industrial processes, but because with ancient lead any radioactive impurity normally introduced by the ore had enough time to decay.
We simply can't filter out trace amounts of radioactive material naturally existing in or around the ore as reliable as time can.
