Best Answer

Almost all granites give off Radon and Thoron gas, both radioactive when they decay down the radiation chain. The dust has silica as well as the radioisotopes present, both can cause lung disease. Have any granite tested for Radon AND Thoron before purchase. Check the radiation levels till you find a low level slab, then have it tested for Radon. Do not trust lab reports unless they were done on YOUR slab. For more info go to solidsurfacealliance.org or forum.solidsurfacealliance.org
