SYDNEY - A lost radioactive capsule found after a search along a 1,400km stretch of the arid Western Australian outback is due to arrive in Perth on Thursday.It was found in the state’s remote north-west on Wednesday.
The Caesium-137 capsule lost more than two weeks ago was found when Australian-invented CORIS360 radiation equipment mounted to a car driving the Great Northern Highway detected gamma rays 74km south of the town Newman in the state’s Kimberley region. No one is thought to have been exposed to radiation and the site was not permanently contaminated, officials said.Authorities believe the gauge broke apart on the journey, dislodging the capsule which then fell out of its crate and from the truck, a road train with multiple trailers.
