{"product_id":"thorite-kemp-prospect-cardiff-township-ontario-canada","title":"Thorite - Kemp Prospect, Cardiff Township, Ontario, Canada","description":"\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThorite is thorium silicate, the thorium analogue of zircon, and this specimen comes from the Kemp Prospect. It shows the dense, dark, resinous look typical of the species, often with the brownish to black tones that come from radiation-driven alteration over geological time. Thorite is a much less common mineral than uraninite, and it is a species many radioactive mineral collections lack entirely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThorium minerals occupy a different corner of the radioactive mineral world from uranium, and thorite is the main primary thorium silicate. Specimens with a named prospect locality are particularly worthwhile for collectors building a Canadian suite or a systematic collection of radioactive species.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eA good addition for anyone filling out the thorium side of a radioactive mineral collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApprox. specimen size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 30mm x 20mm x 20mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApprox. specimen weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18 grams\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApprox. specimen activity on an SE International Ranger EXP: \u003c\/strong\u003e11000 CPM\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e(TH203)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rad Man Minerals","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54729270395164,"sku":null,"price":25.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0726\/5524\/1500\/files\/PA180255.jpg?v=1792339517","url":"https:\/\/radmanminerals.com\/products\/thorite-kemp-prospect-cardiff-township-ontario-canada","provider":"Rad Man Minerals","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
