You get a half a millirem of exposure everytime you smoke a cig. from the heat activating stable carbon into carbon-12 a radioactive isotope. Granite is not radioactive what is the source is all the mortor and any concrete the older it is the worse it is because it has a potash component to it that releases radon gas that alpha decays to lead and bismuth both short half-life isotopes that gamma decay in about 28 min. The only person that knows what happened to Silkwood is Silkwood herself and whoever did it to her I dont think anyone is stupid enough to contaminate themselves with plutonium considering it takes a few micro grams of it to kill you from its heavy metal toxicity. Honestly I was told there was no rhyum or reason to the pattern of contamination in her apartment.
