I ignored my Radiacode in Iceland. That was a mistake. ☢️❄️
The highest readings of the whole trip weren't on the plane. They were at a geothermal power station I didn't even know was radioactive.

It was my pleasure, I'm always intrigued to learn more about these radioactive product from last century. I - however - am in no rush to try them.

They are obsessed with shoving radioactivity up body cavities!

That Colloform Banding in the quartz is exactly what gold hunters would be looking for too.

One for @lucyjanesantos.bsky.social me thinks.

If your 'thingy' falls off, I guess that's technically curing the problem.

There Be Gold in Them Caldbeck Hills (Maybe) – The Uranium Hunter

New Blog Post - There Be Gold in Them Caldbeck Hills (Maybe)

We explore the prevalence of Gold in the Caldbeck Fells of Cumbria, and how there is definitely, possibly, maybe a pot of gold at the end of this spicy mining area.

I love my little xr-1 br-6 Geiger counter (and yes it's a GM it has a tube and everything). My first Geiger. It just sits at the back of my cabinet.

These sheep (especially the cheeky one front middle) are responsible for an area in Cumbria staying radioactive post-Chernobyl for decades.

The exact reason why is just off the charts. Can't wait to tell you guys all about it in a future YouTube video.

A big thank you to Mrs. Uranium Hunter for taking this "David Banner" shot of me after our last rockhounding expedition. It was tough work, but we did some great adventuring, and more importantly - science. Stay tuned for the full video and images.

I read somewhere that you haven't done anything until you've done 100 videos. So here I am. Sometimes it is me spending hours thrashing around the Cheviots looking for radioactive minerals, sometimes it is Burt the Hedgehog helping me find reduction spheroids. But every video is an adventure.

We need pictures with a UV torch, such an exciting collection.

The Most Dangerous "Dust" in History: Radioactive Emergency (Netflix) Review
The Most Dangerous "Dust" in History: Radioactive Emergency (Netflix) Review YouTube video by The Uranium Hunter

The physics behind a "glowing blue powder" is more sinister than it looks. I reviewed Netflix's new disaster series "Radioactive Emergency" (Emergência Radioativa). Here is my breakdown of the show and the terrifying science of Caesium-137:

I Found Where Rocks are Born: The Primordial Secrets of Iceland
I Found Where Rocks are Born: The Primordial Secrets of Iceland YouTube video by The Uranium Hunter

It was my 50th birthday and there was only one thing I wanted to do - to visit Iceland for the first time. However it quickly turned into a quest. A quest amongst lava fields, boiling mud, lava fields and steaming geysers to find the birth. The birth of rock itself.

I swapped the Cheviot Hills for Iceland - to watch the Earth make rocks. Lava fields. Spitting Geysers. Boiling mud. Epic Waterfalls. 50mph winds. And a front-row seat to mineralisation in progress.

Yet again at a DIY store buying more equipment for future videos. This time it is tulip bulb planters, they can also detect caesium-137. How? Follow me to find out in future videos over on YouTube.

God when I first watched this ending it took me age to decompress after. Several watches later and I still haven't got a clue. Still, Lynne Fredrick 😍

Bit of a boo for Otterburn fans. A real shame as there's some really interesting uranium mineralisation there I'd just started to explore. Blame the orange idiot.

I’m on a mission from Jen - Part 2
I am home with my prize! What is it, and how much will it set off the radiacode? And will I ever be able to get off all that bubble wrap!? #antiques #radioactive #fiestaware

It’s funny, Connor. I used to be
demanding of our corporate
artists. Change this, do this,
don’t do that. But as soon as
“AI” came out,
I’d let any old
dogshit go to
print. It turned
out that all I
wanted the
whole time was
to be in charge.

Uranium sea glass forms through a century-long process of anthropogenic taphonomy, where human-made industrial waste is reclaimed and reshaped by nature.
