How to store radioactive material in domestic setting?
I have recently purchased a material with a sizable radiation output. I have a disk cast ingot of both bismuth and lead, roughly 32g each. I do not plan on melting any of them because they are part of my rare metal collection. I would like to know how I can safely store my radioactive metal in my home without exposing myself to harmful amounts of radiation. I only have 5g of the metal so it is not very large in size.
In addition, the element is Uranium by the way
Lead isn’t rare [neither is bismuth, come to think of it], but it is a good shield for radiation… don’t melt your precious 32g disk of lead… go to the bait shop and buy a few kilos of lead sinkers, and melt them down to make a lead box for your 5 grams of plutonium…. also make yourself a pair of undies out of the lead to wear while your handling it or your tadpoles will mutate!
Naturally make sure you comply with all local, state, and federal laws regarding radioactive stuff
