Red Mercury is considered a non-existent material and is an artificial myth that was introduced in the 1980s, although it is still a vague opaque substance and its composition is uncertain, many believe of its existence and usability. It is famous for the widespread claims that it is used in the manufacture of many advanced weapons.
Mercury is a mineral element in nature, a silver colored element, when other chemical compounds are added to it, produces a group of mercury compounds, such as mercury oxide.
It is known that mercury oxidation becomes a color other than the known natural color, it turns red, and the substance becomes extremely toxic, harmful to the human body. When red mercury is placed on a heat source, the smoke rises in blue form, which was used by charlatans, magicians and sorcerers to influence their audiences. Red mercury is not mercury oxide. The only similarity is the reddish color.
In the Eighties Red Mercury came to existence through a fake leak of russian military documents, and quickly turned into the scam of the century. Russian mafia started marketing a red powdered material which was nothing but some compounds mixed with red food coloring to countries or groups interested in obtaining this supposedly radioactive material necessary for the manufacturing of nuclear bombs and advanced weaponry. Many fell victim to this hoax and a pound of this useless powder was sold as high as one million dollars.
The Russian mafia was very creative in marketing these compounds, by putting them in containers marked with the radioactive symbol or containers that seem to resemble military products.

Regardless if it exists or not, what do we know about it?
Red Mercury has two types:
Natural Red Mercury: this kind that has been the source of a lot of rumors and formulated rumors, but most denied it and denied its existence. This type is believed to be made up of some vital tissues and organic matter. Some claimed this natural product was used by the early egyptians to mummify their dead kings. The material is also rumored to be more stable than the chemical counterpart. No traces of Red Mercury were ever found in mummies according to Dr. Zahi Hawwas, former Egyptian head of the Ministry of State for Antiquities.
Chemical Red Mercury: It is a type manufactured in factories, where it is extracted from gold after exposure to radiation for a certain period. With a density of 23 grams per cubic centimeter, so that red mercury is the highest density of materials known on the surface of the globe, and includes within this context all pure minerals as well. This type is made in Russia, a red crystalline powder, which can be used in nuclear processes that rely on nuclear fission, and is therefore used in the manufacture of energy and nuclear bombs with high intensity . This is one of the most expensive materials in the world, the price of one pound approached one million dollars on the black market, it is illegally smuggled from Russian nuclear reactors.
Red mercury uses:
Russian scientists had found important uses of Red Mercury, like the manufacture of tiny nuclear bombs, which can be transported in handbags, has a very powerful effect, as it can exterminate the inhabitants of a whole city like New York within a few minutes, with little to no effect on buildings.
Manufacture of a super radar.
Manufacture of guided warheads.
Manufacture of high precision electric valves for conventional bombs.
Manufacture of high-precision electrical valves for nuclear bombs.
So is Red Mercury real or a hoax?
Really cool article about a subject I had no knowledge about what so ever. Well done and thank you so very much for this piece, again with excellent quality to it.
Namaste :)

HOAX, but the name of one of my best Home brew Beers!
Resteem to share the knowledge !
Nice!
I like your work keep it up
I follow you let's work together!
it will be proven if one finds a clear fact, and that possibility has been found, because red merxury is the most wanted compound in the world, then it may be just the secret of an organization that should not be known by public .. it's my think and not necessarily true. thanks.
Congratulation bro.good job.go ahead.
Back in March, a series of strange events occurred in Atlanta. The first being the I85 bridge collapse. That was followed by the shooting of a prominent lawyer.
Finally, they closed the streets off because someone reported having, you guessed it, red mercury.

I think it is code...
i want to take red mercury in my hands with mercury proof gloves :D
I've never heard of red mercury before but I guess that just sums up how naive I am with everything that is happening around me.
It is uncanny how a blue flame rises from a red composition but I guess if we look at most flammable materials the flame differs from the colour of the material.
I'd understand why it would be used in things such as sorcerers as I bet it is pretty captivating and enchanting to see such contrasting colours occur at one time. It sounds like something a witch would use haha
It seems like it is made in the manufacturing of some pretty sinister things. It is weird how we have never found it. I feel as if it would be something real and hidden away but like me and many others, I'm not sure @joseph
Interesting post..on can argue real and hoax. I am newcomer to Steemit and just posted my introduction post. I'd appreciate it if you could give it a read and let me know what you think!
Thank you for sharing, I loved your post, I hope you follow me back, so new here.
If this is real humans are skrewed if this gets in the wrong hands!

Followed and upvoted and commented .
Talk about a bubble. Like the tulip one in The Netherlands of old. But this one wasn't even backed by anything.
I was interested to read your post @joseph
I think this is fake.
Real or hoax, it doesn't matter, BATTLE.CRUISER operational. All the way to Jupiter. ASCENSION.
Interesting post. Never heard of red mercury so I guess I have some researching to do.
our post is very good I really like it
you are lucky in this steemit, and I hope you also support me in this steemit thanks.
I'm new to this steemit community so I still have a lot to learn with all of you who already know a lot and have experience in steemit, I hope you can see my introduction post in steemit hope you like it.
Wow!! Very Nice Knowledge Post!! Red Mercury I had heard some where this type of things before too...!
Follow and Upvoted!
Nice breakdown. when I was reading world history, I encountered this a lot. Alchemy never stressed this enough. impressive.
great post thank's , can you follow me !
Beautiful post
Thanks man
Maybe you mean RED MERCURY SULFIDE?
it is an oil colour called VERMILION or chinese red or cinnabar red
Highley toxic and valueable - got replaced by cadmium red, but Vermilion is faster drying.
If you like the italian painter TITIAN you probably know it from his paintings.
@joseph - check it out here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vermilion
Very informative story...Nice one
... kind of like that other hoax, that fiat money actually has value
Are we supposed to cite source material on steemit or no one cares?
really informative i learned a lot about red mercury today.. thanks for your good work @joseph keep steeming
I had never heard of this stuff!
Mercury is some crazy stuff
First time ever hearing about this, might be true, might not be. There's so many things in this world we all wish has answers too. The Russian Mob was really smart on marketing it and making big bucks off of people's curiosity! I wonder what other fake substance they're making to fool people today.
I had seek something where the nazis supposedly made a bell with red mercury rotating in different directions and enabled time travel. Project was di glaken if i remember right.
You probably already got notice of this but just incase you did not https://steemit.com/mercury/@farukansary/red-mercury-real-or-hoax a copy and paste job of most of your post. @cheetah called him on it so you probably do know about it. Just making sure. he seems new 15 days on steemit, and may not know what he did, but after 15 days on steemit I think most people know it is wrong to copy and paste someone else's work as their own.
what sold for one million dollar dammm
Congratulations @joseph!
Your post was mentioned in the hit parade in the following category:
That was super interesting. I'm on the hoax side.
I first saw this ...
Found this on Wiki: A sample of radioactive material was seized by German police in May 1994. This consisted of a complex mixture of elements, including about 10% by weight plutonium, with the remainder consisting of 61% mercury, 11% antimony, 6% oxygen, 2% iodine and 1.6% gallium. A formula reported for the powder component of the mixture was Hg6Sb2O8 (mercury(II) cyclopyrorthoantimonate), with some of the mercury present in its pure metallic form.
