Radium Minerals Education Coalition
Description. Named from the Latin word meaning “ray,” radium is a soft, shiny, silvery-white metal which tarnishes quickly. It is radioactive as well as chemically active, reacting with air, water and acids. Radium compounds glow, although the metal itself does not. The curie, a measurement of radioactivity, is based upon radium.
