JÁCHYMOV - the spa town located on the southern slopes of the Krušné hory (Ore Mountains) at an altitude of 650 m, in an area which is unlikely rich in the occurrence of minerals (230 types of minerals are to be found within an area of just a few square kilometers). Two of them had even a striking effect on the global history. First, at the beginning of 16^th century the silver received of enormous deposits of silver ore was used for minting coins called Tholers - Thalers -Tolars - Dollars which spread over in America giving there the name of American Dollar. Later on, in 1898 Marie and Piere Curie isolated of the Jáchymov’ uranium ore a completely new element, radium. Due to this unique discovery the Curies were awarded the Nobel prize. Afterwards the high content of radon noble gas was proved in Jáchymov mine waters and , in result of this experience, the first radon spa of the world was open at Jáchymov in 1906. The radon bath treatment is based on an unspecific stimulative effect induced by micro-doses of the alpha-radiation.
