  • !!!The most important aspects of safety!!!
    Key things to reduce exposure:
    1. Shielding
    2. Time (of exposure)
    3. Distance
    Key things to keep safe:
    1. Minimize exposure if possible.
    2. Always wash hands and wear gloves.
    3. Never allow inhalation or ingestion of dust from samples.
    4. Keep samples away from children (anyone, actually) and only bring if necessary
    5. Never store samples under your bed (not sure why they do, but apparently people do this lol)

    Nice! Thank you! And what about dust from rocks? The big one rock on paper in your vid have a dust around (little pieces). How danger this little dust? And how danger keep this rocks in hands? They give dust on your hands? (sorry for my English)

      You can use blue tag, silicone Adhesive glue and many more but through my experience blue tag or silicone works the best
