Trinitite

Trinitite, also known as Alamogordo glass, is the glassy residue left on the desert floor after the plutonium based Trinity nuclear bomb test on 16th July, 1945, near Alamogordo, New Mexico, USA. It is mainly composed of sand melted by the blast as an estimated 4,300 gigajoules of heat energy went into it’s formation. Material within the blast was super-heated for an estimated 2–3 seconds before re-solidification.

Trinitite no longer contains sufficient radiation to be harmful .It still contains the radionuclides 241Am, 137Cs and 152Eu owing to the Trinity test using a plutonium
bomb.
