Dear Serge, List;
I have a few dinosaur bones around the house, and a number of specimens
of petrified wood from the Henry Mountains of southern Utah. Now that
material is radioactive. It comes from the yellow dust in most of the
soils of the jurassic and triassic of the area.
Happy Saturday,
Dave F. mudville
