    Barium found in the Earth's crust is a mixture of seven primordial nuclides, barium-130, 132, and 134 through 138. [15] Barium-130 undergoes very slow radioactive decay to xenon -130 by double beta plus decay , with a half-life of (0.5–2.7)×10 21 years (about 10 11 times the age of the universe).

    Barium is a chemical element with the symbol Ba and atomic number 56. It is the fifth element in Group 2, a soft silvery metallic alkaline earth metal. Barium is never found in nature in its pure form due to its reactivity with air. Its oxide is historically known as baryta but it reacts with water and carbon dioxide and is not found as a mineral.
