Comparison of ternary fission of the metallic cluster 
into equal fragments with binary fission is made by use of the Shell
Correction Method. We conclude that favourable fission
barriers and energy releases of that tripartition
along with some dynamical properties make ternary fission
a very attractive process for further investigation.
