Uranium is a chemical element with the symbol U and atomic number 92. It is a silvery-grey metal in the actinide series of the periodic table. It is one of the key components to nuclear energy.
This sample of Uranium is a beautiful green form called Autunite. It is 50% uranium by mass and is a naturally forming crystal of Uranium. It is not regulated by international shipping laws because it is a natural crystal specimen. It is slightly radioactive but the acrylic shields most of the Alpha and Beta particles. Autunite is becoming increasingly hard to collect. This sample will glow under a black light.
