The article says, "After coming into contact with the mineral, radioactive water becomes completely safe." What does it mean by "radioactive water"? Is that D2O or T2O, or water that's contains other radionuclides? Then too, what does "coming into contact" mean? If enough time passes after the contact starts, the radioactive material will eventually decay on its own, in the same sense that "all bleeding stops". The water might taste funny, though.
