Radioactive rock samples may contain one or more several other minerals such as: Tyuyamunite (green/yellow) Uraninite (Black ,Crystalline) Pitchblade (Black) Carnotite (Green/Yellow, Lemon-Yellow) Uranophane (Bright Yellow) and Gummite (Orange-Brown)
Each specimen is measured with GCA-07W Digital Geiger Counter that has passed NRC's ANSI-STD N323A certification. Activity of alpha, beta and gamma in Counts Per Minute (CPM) is provided along with measurement certification. Rock samples typically have one area that is more radioactive than rest of specimen. Measurement of radioactivity is taken from the most radioactive portion of the sample. CPM is total radiation read from sample. Please keep in mind the radioactive rock is a high alpha source emmitter. If the Geiger counter used to measure the rock sample can not detect alpha radiation, the CPM count that Geiger counter reads will be significantly lower than the count provided on the label and certificate.
Features: Useful for testing Geiger Counters. License exempt. Sample sizes vary. Shipped in labeled metal container as shown with overall CPM & Certificate Of Authenticity (CPM Will Vary from Sample Shown). Container size approximately 1-3/4" height 2-1/2" diameter.

Each uranium rock sample is radioactive and tested with a NRC certified GCA-07W Digital Geiger Counter before embedding the rock sample in plastic. Uranium rock size varies. The radioactivity of the embedded uranium rock sample may not be detectable by a Geiger Counter through its encasing plastic. Each uranium rock specimen is different. These are handmade products so there may also be tiny air bubbles trapped in the plastic from the casting and embedding process.
