Carnotite Uranium Rock 8.0 Oz 35,900. Cpm and 50 similar items

Natural Uranium Rock CARNOTITE Weight: 8.0 Oz. Radioactivity: 35,900. This rock was found during October 2025 at Jurassic Canyon, located 18 miles NW from Grants NM. During the 1950s, a decorative licence plate frame was mounted on local cars here, stating: GRANTS NM: URANIUM CAPITAL OF USA. This is also the title of a recent book on on regional southwest history, entitled: YELLOWCAKE TOWNS: URANIUM MINING IN AMERICA'S SOUTHWEST. There is another book entitled: UNDERGROUND AND RADIOACTIVE: Adventures of Uranium Miners at New Mexico during the 1970s Both books are available for purchase online at or at Amazon. SUGGESTION: Look at all my Bonanza ads for these uranium rocks, then buy two or more rocks at the same time. When this is done, then I will REFUND ANY OVERPAYMENT of shipping costs, above the total postage cost. The refund $$$$ will be deposited directly to your PayPal account. I do this with all rock sales at Amazon, and also with all my sales (mostly Apple II computer parts). Occasionally, I receive comments about handling the rocks with my bare hands. Uranium rocks mainly have ALPHA RADIATION, which is blocked by any barrier, even clothing or the skin itself. The main health concern is to PREVENT URANIUM FROM ENTERING THE BODY. This risk occurs during windy days at the uranium field. If the winds are strong, then uranium particles could be suspended in the air, from which they could be breathed. The Jurassic Canyon uranium field is only 14 miles from the I-40 interstate freeway. At the freeway, there are warning signs to motorists, to park on the freeway shoulder during any dust storm that wipes out visibility. High winds carry uranium dust particles which could be breathed, with harmful effects. These dust storms are most likely experienced during March or April each year. In that event, I recommend that a facemask filter should be worn to prevent dust particles from being inhaled. If uranium dust gets inside the body, it tends to concentrate in the kidneys. Expulsion from the body of the uranium particles via urine excretion follows a biological half-life of eight weeks. While rock- collecting, I hold my pancake probe once an hour against the left or right lower-back areas to detect any radioactive response from the kidneys. Never, not even once, have my kidneys shown any hint that they have been contaminated by dust inhalation.
