       ...The elemental
       fluorine is generated through
       minute uranium inclusions in the
       mineral, which constantly emit
       ionizing radiation and thus split
       the fluorite into calcium and
       elemental fluorine. The fluorine
       remains in minute inclusions,
       separated from the calcium by
       the non-reactive fluorite and thus
       retains its elemental form...
