It was reported that test results indicated gamma radiation is not an issue. Was beta radiation also tested?
No. External beta radiation levels were not tested. Beta radiation is stopped by the skin or a few feet of air and is not considered an external risk. However, almost all natural sources of beta radiation also have a gamma radiation component to them. Because the gamma radiation test results were negative, there could not be beta radiation in these samples.
