A member asked:

If i touched radioactive gemstones, would radiation stay on my skin or clothes? can you explain why?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Nonradioactive: Gem stones are not radioactive, so you are safe in that regard to start off. Secondly, for radiation to remain on you particle from the source material need to remain on you and polished stones do not give off physical particles.
