Radium 226 would be the great great granddaughter of Uranium 238.

Uranium 238 decays to Thorium 234 with a half-life of 4.5 billion years.

Thorium 234 decays to Protactinium 234 with a half-life of 24 days. (child)

Protactinium 234 decays to Uranium 234 with a half-life of 1.2 minutes. (granddaughter)

Uranium 234 decays to Thorium 230 with a half-life of 240,000 years. (great granddaughter)

Thorium 230 decays to Radium 226 with a half-life of 75,000 years. Radium 226 has a half-life of 1600 years.

Subsequent decay products are:

  • Radon 222 (half-life = 38 days)
  • Polonium 218 (half-life = 3.1 minutes)
  • Lead 214 (half-life = 27 minutes)
  • Bismuth 214 (half-life = 20 minutes)
  • Polonium 214 (half-life = 160 microseconds)
  • Lead 210 (half-life = 22 years)
  • Bismuth 210 (half-life = 5 days)
  • Polonium 210 (half-life = 138 days)
  • Lead 206 (stable - does not decay further)
