Marie Curie
26m · PublishedMarie Curie isn't really an alchemist, but she did show that "transmutation" does happen in nature. Normally this is out of the scope of The History of Alchemy Podcast, but we took the opportunity to compare modern atomic theory to the one of alchemists.
To make up for us going out of scope we tell how to make gold at the end of the episode. No tricks, really turning mercury into gold using modern science!

13m · PublishedPaul of Taranto may have been one of the the "Pseudo-Gebers" and had an interesting theory of the composition of metals (basically mercury and sulphur) that would become canon to alchemical theory.
