  • Radioactive Ore Sample (NORM)
  • License Exempt
  • Useful for testing Geiger counters and performing nuclear experiments
  • Radioactive minerals are for educational and scientific use only.

I have been using this product for a while now in my experiments and it is now at around $81 delivered. I would prefer a higher CPM, however these samples vary wildly and it is possible to receive a substantially higher grade. This is where the Nuclear Radiation Detector Meter comes in handy.

3.8 out of 5 star reviews. You have to weed your way through the joke reviews but some honest and helpful examples are below (which also reflect the product's varied uses):

Magic stuff. Been taking 1 spoon a day for 3 weeks.

Wow! all I can say is, my teeth have never been cleaner!

Mixed this in with rose fertilizer and have blooms nearly one foot in diameter!

But it is only appropriate to show some cautions too:

I thought I was ordering Uranium 235. This stuff is not fissionable

No warning on the label.

I was very disappointed to have my uranium confiscated at the airport. It was a gift for my son for his birthday.

My daughter got a hold of this and accidentally dropped it in the cemetery down the street from us

    Do they ship to North Korea?

    Uranium 238 would have been a better choice, schools should use them in science labs!

    Fake / Chinese junk. Couldn't generate the 1.21 gigawatts needed to power my flux capacitor. Stick to genuine Plutonium.

        It is real. Schools buy this kind of thing for use in classroom physics experiments. We had some at my high school.

        However, this is way overpriced. It has a novelty factor with the colourful tin.

        It's just the comments and reviews that are jokes (most of them).
