Subject: [RCAAM] radioactive minerals


Good morning all, 

We have 2 very small radioactive minerals in our collection - autunite
and carnotite. I seem to be finding conflicting information on proper
storage for these - everything from sealed lead containers to poly bags
in a box! Can anyone shed some light on this topic?

Thank you so much!

Laura
