A special thanks to RadiaCode for sponsoring today's video. Their useful geiger counters can be bought at https://www.radiacode.com/products. This very banana is actively producing antimatter. And, its not alone. There are also multiple minerals which can also produce it, including the gemstone amazonite. Today's video discusses why this is the case through a peculiar quirk of both geology and physics. And yes, it relates to radioactivity!
