The equilibrium distribution of several fission product elements (lanthanide metals) between bismuth and the fused salt eutectic magnesium chloridesodium chioride -potassium chloride was investigated. The experiments provided a basis for design of a countercurrent, salt-metal extraction process, and unpublished studies indicated that lanthanides may be separated from uranium in a single equilibrium contacting stage.
