I've heard that ominous music from somewhere but forgot where. Is it uranium-235 or uranium-238?

The ore sample is Naturally Occurring Radioactive Materials (NORM).

Not everything is U-235 or U-238.

Can you make a video when you trigger it with a neutron to see the effect on minimum scale? will it catch fire / explode or something like that? just curious

what do you mean by alpha signal? also, how dangerous is to keep around and how far away should i keep it?

I believe I said Alpha signal. It’s safe in the bag and in the container. But I wouldn’t put in on a neck chain and give it to someone, or grind it into a powder…lol

@@Skyywatcher88 lol. my bad misspelled "alpha" as "aloha". so why wouldn't the detector measure that wave? and one last thing, why does it read 14 cpm without even having any radio active stuff around?

I believe it would require another or different tube to pickup alpha. Why it’s at low CPM is background radiation. Radiation that is all around us, natural radiation like from the sun and space. Usually background radiation is mostly between 16-26 CPM.

is this safe to buy and just have for fun and keep in my room, also if i wanted to dispose of it can I just throw it out?

Indeed it is safe for fun as long as you store it in the container it comes in. The radiation can’t penetrate the container. I don’t take it out of the bag because there is dust. You don’t want to inhale any dust from it. I wouldn’t make any jewelry such as a necklace or anything. You don’t want to be exposed to it for long periods of time.

@@bigpenguin5431 i live in rural kentucky and there was a whole scandal because radiation levels in a landfill were high due to dumping of smoke detectors. Your best bet for disposal is to put it in a lead box, dig a very deep hole, throw it in, and fill it with concrete

the truth is, you can buy uranium ore from places like Amazon or Ebay, and you won't have to produce any special authorization to get it. The purpose of buying Uranium-238, the most common isotope of the element, is purely for research as long as it’s under 3.3 pounds.
