Radioactive Capsule lost in Western Australia

So a potentially dangerous radioactive substance fell off the back of a truck along the 1,400km freight route from Pilbara to Perth. For the team members on the East Coast that's basically from Coffs Harbor to Melbourne.

It is smaller than a 10 cent coin and emits two millisieverts of radiation per hour. As you can tell authorities are desperate to find it.

It would be cool if Radioactive@Home could be of some help
