I've been helping inventory in the geology area.
The pinkish stone that was 'crumbling' and had dust all over?  arsenic based.

That's super exciting, now they get to figure out how to clean that area.
(I'm sure it's mostly safe...just don't lick your fingers)

    Does it smell like burnt almonds?  At least I think that is what arsenic is supposed to smell like, but it's been a while since my nose was tucked in an Agatha Christie novel.

    Yeah, it's almonds. 

    I also just learned that C-4 (the explosive) smells like almonds. I think the almond board should make that the centerpiece of a new ad campaign: "Almonds: Dangerously Delicious!" "They'll explode your mouth with flavor!" 

    I'm a marketing genius, yo.

    I chose not to stick my nose in arsenic powder and sniff...
    I also chose not to inhale the asbestos samples :-)
