The Mineral AUTUNITE ... Autunite is one of the more attractive and popular radioactive minerals. To state the obvious, the uranium in its chemical formula provides this radioactivity. Autunite is probably the most popular uranium mineral for collectors.

The Mineral META-AUTUNITE ... Group: Meta-autunite ... Meta-autunite is a dehydration product of its close cousin, autunite, hence the name. When the mineral autunite loses water and converts to meta-autunite, it becomes what is known as a pseudomorph.

Recently I have discovered a very large deposit of Autunite. I have a CDV 700 geiger counter which peaks out with the probe up to 1 inch away from a specimen and the shield open. That's over 30,000 counts/minute. With the shield closed the readings are 2 to 5 mR/Hr. How dangerous is this amount of radioactivity?
