|  | 1. | Traces of the minor actinides are present in spent reactor fuel. 
 
 | 
|  | 2. | Among the actinides, thorium and uranium are the easiest to isolate. 
 
 | 
|  | 3. | Even easier is to produce complex salts of pentavalent and hexavalent actinides. 
 
 | 
|  | 4. | Berkelium is a soft, silvery-white, radioactive actinide metal. 
 
 | 
|  | 5. | The minor actinide cycle is kept within the green box. 
 
 | 
|  | 6. | The actinide series derives its name from the group 3 element actinium. 
 
 | 
|  | 7. | This has a higher melting point than the actinide metals. 
 
 | 
|  | 8. | The hydrated salts are also used for the extraction of actinide elements. 
 
 | 
|  | 9. | Actinide fusion has been done in the small-scale. 
 
 | 
|  | 10. | Heavy Fermions are intermetallic compounds, containing rare earth or actinide elements.
