CARNOTITE is a common uranium

mineral.   Typically, it has scattered

colors of yellow and black on its rock

surface.  Jurassic Canyon NM is the

USA's richest location for uranium

natural rocks to be found, on or near

the ground surface.  The world price

of uranium has risen significantly

during early 2024;  In April 2024, the

world present uranium price is $92.00 / pound!  I expect that mines that

have been closed for 35 years,

since 1989, will reopen at the canyon

before the end of 2024 !

 

Radiation levels above 40,000. CPM are

considered high levels, with regard to

comparison with other natural

radioactive rocks.  This rock, with

29,000. CPM is upper-middle level.

  (NOTE that applications in industrial,

medical, or military uses have far

higher radiation levels than those

found in natural uranium rocks.)

 

CARNOTITE sometimes has crusty

flakes, imbedded in sandstone. This

is one of the very common uranium

minerals found at uranium mine fields.

 

 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 on Earth;  At the surface of red

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission,

and also USPS regulations, forbid

the export of natural uranium rocks to 

to any address at any foreign country.
