Staten
Island Warehouse
Staten Island is an AWE facility for 1942 so workers are eligible to file for Part B claims.
This warehouse was used for uranium ore
storage from the Belgian Congo. From this warehouse, the ore
was transported to various Manhattan Engineer District (MED)
sites for long-term storage and/or processing. The ore was
the property of the African Metals Corporation and the MED
contractor purchased only the U3O8 content of the ore while
African Metals retained ownership of the radium and precious
metals in the ore.
