I was around some depleted uranium for a few years in the military. "They" said it was safe. After about 4 years, we had our van checked with a geiger counter... The bench where we placed the depleted uranium umm items, made the geiger counter go crazy... And for the previous years we had been handleing this stuff with our bare hands. "They" decided we needed to wear rubber gloves and face masks after that.
I also heard that some idiot slid one of the du items across a concrete floor, like a frisby but on the ground. It threw off sparks. I'm glad I wasn't there to see that.
Depleted uranium may infact be safe... "they" keep telling us it is.
