Just love the two of you and no it wasn’t boring to watch this video. Your reaction on finding the Uranium glass reminded me of my reaction when I found my first piece 😂
I love exploring with a UV LED light. A UV light used for curing nail polish lacquers is very powerful and can be powered from a battery bank. No it wasn’t boring to watch this video. 🙂
This is new to me, I have a small UV torch and will take it with me next time I go to the beaches (fairly regular for me, we usually search for stones with holes through them - hagstones). Which type (U238, U235 or U234 all of which produce Alpha radiation which can be stopped by your skin) ? Is it radioactive in this form? - I have a Geiger counter - it will be interesting to test... _popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries_ ? it was used to make bottles? containing foodstuffs? I presume this is safe since Uranium will be locked into the glass, a method used to 'safely' dispose of Nuclear Waste.
To be honest I do t know the answer to all these questions. I’d be interested to hear how much radiation if any you would get off uranium glass. I know radiation was treated as a health benefit in small quantities untill the 1940’s. They stopped using uranium when supplies of it became restricted in the Second World War. It’s pretty rare find on beaches though

Thank you. I couldn’t quite believe how much I squealed when I found the first bit!

I was so excited to watch you surprise Jane!
What beach are you at?

Ah thanks 🤩 glad you enjoyed it, where do you find your UV glass?

That’s amazing what is uv glass where is it from
Uv glass is a very small amount of uranium that they used to put in when making decorative glass wear in the olden days, thanks for watching 🫶🤩
What beach are you on
That’s the Warren in Folkestone, Kent
