[Old Crank]

1. Information about the radiation buried at the end of the article.

Finally got to the possible level. Less than 50 picocuries per gram. Elevated levels tell you next to nothing. Not mentioned is the type of radiation. Alpha, beta, or gamma. Each behaves differently with different hazards. Safety precautions depend on knowledge of the radiation type. No mention of half life which will tell you how long you have to store the stuff for before it is not harmfull.
