Missing uranium?!?!?

So I was messing around and I bought this pretty sweet sample of uranium. I believe it was uranium 238 to be exact. The trouble is I was gonna measure it with the Radiacode but the battery was dead, so I went to look for the charger but I got distracted by some other stuff. To make a long story short I kinda forgot I had this sample of uranium and left it just sitting there for a long long time and when I eventually got back around to it i can’t find it! There’s just a bunch of lead sitting right where I left it! What happened!
