u/Mitiagu

2 pic 395nm, 3 pic - 365nm

It looks like it's actually ug! Although I do admit the 186 kev peak is quite faint. Pic 4 is 365nm, and pic 5 is 395nm.

The first one is obviously ug, i can even get 0.70 uSv/h if I unscrew it and put my geiger on the tiny opening. The green one in the middle has a bit of a glow under 395nm, and does register slightly above background but it's impossible to get a proper read because it's not spicy enough, and I can't put my geiger right against the inner glass. The blue one only has the slightest hint of a glow under 395nm and pretty much doesn't register on my geiger at all. The first 4 uv pics are under 395nm. The last 4 are under 365nm.

So I know everyone and their mother is sick of these types of posts, but please bear with me. I've found this almost clear juicer at the flea market. Pic 6 is what it looks like without daylight, no hint of green whatsoever, but pic 7 is how it looks in the sunny weather, with a bit of help from a white LED, it has a green tint, kinda like very pale Vaseline. The glow under 395 nm looks indistinguishable from uranium to me (pic 1 is next to a Vaseline Scailmont perfume bottle), while the 365nm glow (last pic) looks pretty much the same in person but a bit brighter on the photo. The geiger reading, while admittedly not that high, is still way above any manganese pices with k40 that I've met so far. The spectrum is not very distinguishable because the juicer's radioactivity is so low, and I only have a radiacode 101, but it is consistent with the spectrums I get from my other low contents pieces, which are more obviously ug. Based on how swirly and uneven, almost like slag glass, the glowing inclusions are, i believe this piece was not meant to contain uranium, but rather the initial ingredients were prepared in a place which was recently used for making ug and not cleaned properly, or got contaminated by trace amounts of uranium otherwise. I really want to know what you guys think about this piece.
