Not provided are details that say whether U-238 is a problem or just another expensive metal. For example, high purity U-238 is even added to some materials as a radiation filter. U-235 content, purity, and other numbers are critical to understand the value (or threat) of that material. Numbers that were not provided.

More relevant is how they obtained this material. Who is marketing this stuff? And what else to they have access to?
