Sealed Bag Of 2.5 Oz. Small Uranium Pebbles and similar items

NATURAL URANIUM ROCKS 2.5 OZ. SEALED SMALL POLY BAG Most of these rocks are from Jurassic Canyon NM: Richest Surface-Level Uranium Field in the USA; A few rocks may also be from Uravan CO or from Lisbon Valley UT. These rocks are too small to sell individually, so they are gathered as a small group, totalling 2.5 oz. weight. The rocks are a random mixture of these enriched mineral types: Jurassic Todilto Limestone (JTL), Carnotite, Coffinite, Tyuyamunite, and Uraninite. I will enclose a geology journal article that declares Jurassic Canyon NM to be the main worldwide source for JTL uranium rocks. What makes this especially interesting is that the JTL rock is the type most likely to contain radioactive fossils of dinosaurs. Several states have locations with ancient dinosaur fossils (e.g., Oregon's John Day State Park, or Colorado's Dinosaur National Monument), but only two locations have numerous radioactive dinosaur fossils: Jurassic Canyon NM, and sites near Price Utah's Dinosaur Museum. NOTE: These small variety bags, are low-cost samples, so the purchase-limit is ONE SAMPLE-BAG per buyer. With rocks sold individually, combined purchases are encouraged ! SEALED CLEAR DOUBLE POLY BAG These rocks must be left sealed inside their clear container: Two thick zip-lock bags, one inside the other. DO NOT OPEN; the rocks' radioactivity can be measured safely through the double-thick clear poly bag. The rock varieties differ from others, but each bag's highest measured activity level is 10,000 cpm or more, when measured with a sensitive pancake probe. ALL FEDERAL REGULATIONS ABOUT URANIUM ROCKS ARE CORRECTLY AND FULLY OBEYED (1) BUREAU OF LAND MANAGEMENT (BLM): Collection of rocks is okay for rockhound hobbyists; ATV vehicles are not allowed; daily limit on weight of collected rocks permitted. (2) NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION (NRC): No manufacturing from rocks allowed without NRC advance license; correct labeling; medical health safety statement. (3) U.S. POST OFFICE (USPS): Double-box packaging of mailed rocks; metal shielding of uranium rocks; no exports allowed to any foreign countries. SAFE HANDLING OF ROCKS IS PRESENTED ON SEVERAL WRITTEN HANDOUTS (1) "Health Precautions to be Followed When Handling Uranium Ore" (one page; written by the seller) (2) "A Word about Safe Handling" (one page; written by Ph.D. geologist / book author Robert Lauf) (3) "Unwrapping and Storing Your Uranium Rock Collection" (one page; written by the seller) (4) "Small Bag of Mixed Uranium Rocks" (half-page; written by the seller; November 2022) (5) " Jurassic Todilto Limestone: The NM Canyon's Very Unique Uranium Mineral" (two pages; written by the seller, July 2022) (6) "What Are the Standards and Regulations for Uranium Exposure?" (two pages; compiled by the Federal OSHA (Occupational Safety Health Administration) and the Federal EPA (Environmental Protection Agency), 2009) POLY BAGS ARE SELECTED RANDOMLY PRIOR TO MAILING These poly bags vary in their activity levels, but buyers cannot choose a preferred activity level: medium or upper. Each bag is wrapped in brown paper before it is sold, so its specific activity level is unknown. Its activity level will be at some random level, 10,000 cpm or higher, with level measured by a standard pancake probe. SHIPPING Shipping is only allowed within the USA, NOT to any foreign country, because of USPS postal regulations. If you buy several poly bags, you may be charged $9.80 postage on each bag, but I will REFUND to the buyer's PayPal account any overpayment on shipping the combined package. The postage refund will be done soon after the package has been mailed. SUGGESTION TO URANIUM ROCK HOUNDS: JOIN ME SOON TO COLLECT MORE ROCKS! The underground mines at Jurassic Canyon closed during the late 1980s, because nuclear power had become unpopular at that time. But today, nuclear power has restored its popularity among environmentalists, mainly because it has NO carbon content and it contributes nothing to global warming. The underground mining will resurrect, if/when the world price of uranium reaches $65.00 per lb. Currently, that price is rising, and is approx. $58.00. The whole town of Grants NM is eager to see the return of local prosperity when the mines are opened again! But uranium "rockhounds" should arrange with me soon, to join me for uranium rock-collecting; when the mines re-open, eight-ft fences around them will keep "rockhounds" away from the best rock-collecting sites! It has now been two full years since I have been out there collecting rocks with visitors; join me now! My first 14 of 35 trips to Jurassic Canyon were done alone, but that is risky because the uranium field is inhabited by a few rattlesnakes; I fear that, if I collect rocks alone and get a snake bite, I might not be able to drive the car 22 miles to the hospital in Grants. I need a companion when collecting the rocks! On the last day of a 3-5 day outing, I divide the found rocks with the guest, 50-50 so we each get the same weight of found rocks, at the end. If any found rocks are radioactive dinosaur fossils, those too are shared 50-50. Arrange your rock-collecting visit! Stephen Buggie, Ph.D. Professor Emeritus Univ. of New Mexico Gallup NM 87301
