Uranium Doped Glass
Marbles
under Ultraviolet light (Blacklight) |
Radioactive Uranium Doped Glass Marbles, approximately 5/8" in diameter.
The
marbles
contain approximately 3% Uranium 238 ( by weight ).
This small amount of Uranium is added to the glass while it's still in the
furnace and in a molten state.
As the Uranium dissolves into the red-hot glass, it takes on the tell-tale pale
green color of Uranium Glass.
Because of the added Uranium in the glass, the marbles
glow brightly under Ultraviolet
light ( Blacklight ).
The small amount of radiation that the marbles
emit will also register on
sensitive Geiger Counters.
The marbles
do not emit high or dangerous levels of radiation, and are completely safe to
handle.
A small sample of Uranium ore (the
type used to make this particular type of glass) is included.

Collectors
take note: Uranium Glass is no longer manufactured
anywhere in the World. Although a few glass manufacturers still
have small quantities that they are keeping for historical
purposes, no one plans on manufacturing any in the future. Once
our stock is sold out, we never expect to see any again. |
