This rock was collected at ground

level (not underground) during October 2018, at

the Jurassic Canyon, located 20 miles NW of

the town of Grants NM.  As a type of limestone,

   it was produced at an ancient body of water in

visible layers. Of the several types of uranium

minerals, its layers of mineral are very visible.

  When you buy this JTL, I will enclose a photocopy

of a  research article that confirms that

the rock was produced gradually in water,

during time interval of thousands or millions

of years. The ancient water body was

called Ambrosia Lake, which has been dry for

for millions of years. What makes JTL rocks very

special, compared with other uranium minerals, is

that radioactive dinosaur fossils are more likely

located in JTL rocks, rather than in other varieties

of uranium mineral rocks. The New Mexico Museum

of Natural History has many displays of radioactive

dinosaur fossils, and these originated at Jurassic

Canyon, near Grants. Mount Taylor, the long-

extinct uranium volcano, spewed huge amounts of

uranium during the Jurassic era, 200 million to 146

million years ago; this was the era when the shores

of Lake Ambrosia (in the shadow of the Mount

Taylor volcano), teemed with many dinosaurs of various species.

 

 

ALPHA RADIATION is the radiation type
that is most easily blocked by barriers,
even by clothing, paper, or the skin.
 Alpha radiation is the radiation type that
 is most commonly emitted by natural

uranium.   By contrast, Gamma ray

radiation, is the "Macho" type of

radiation.  Gamma rays penetrate all

barriers, even metals such as lead.

Gamma rays make space travel difficult,

because cosmic rays in outer space are

mainly gamma radiation. Cosmic radiation

at the ISS space station is 240 times more

intense than natural surface radiation

radiation on Earth;  At the surface of red

planet Mars, the radiation is 730

times more intense than Earth's own

surface radiation. The Gamma Ray Burst

of October 2022, a tightly focused narrow

  beam, traveled 2.4 billion light years to
Earth; it was the most intense energy 
event since the early "Big Bang." That

GRB interrupted low-frequency AM-

radio on Earth for four days.

YouTube!  There are now about 80 teaching
videos on GRBs at YouTube;  this is one of
the most amazing topics in all of astronomy.
 
My P3 geiger probe has a large 3"
pancake sensor made at Ukraine in the late

 1980s for the USSR Soviet military; it is

tuned to respond mainly to gamma rays; if

aimed upward at the sky, it could detect

distant GRB signals from other galaxies, such

as the one that hit Earth in October 2022.
