The Shinkolobwe Mine in the Belgian Congo was described by a 1943 Manhattan Project intelligence report as the "most important deposit of uranium yet discovered in the world". So long as the United States remained in control of this mine and its supply, it had a world monopoly on the primary material needed to build an atomic bomb. The uranium from this mine was used to build the bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945.

Atomic Diamonds: A Review of "Spies in The Congo".
Revisado: 05-07-21
Having family involved in World War II and The Cold War... "Spies in The Congo", opens up an additional chapter in The History of The OSS during World War II.
Before his death, due to a series of strokes in 1971... Alexander S. Moch, claimed he was a member of OSS. Upon research, it seems very possible that he was a charter member of COI and a Nephew or Grandson of Former Secretary of State, Oscar Straus.
The validity of Moch's claim is what he shared with me in abbreviated gibberish, becomes more enlightening, in this OSS History Chapter. In "Spies in The Congo", by Susan Williams reveals a much deeper perspective of "The Nuclear Question" and what we are facing today. What we get as a history lesson, pales in comparison to the consiquences we now face. In spite The Enlightenment of historical exposure... there is also A Dark Side to all this as well. It is a Personal Shadow of what I have inherited from the sharing from 'Uncle Alexander'. Though I no direct involvement... indirectly I do, that I must additionally research. All and all, "Spies in The Congo", in my opinion... a good read and in my opinion, an eye opening account, that effects all of us.
