In Grand Junction, in fact anywhere in Colorado it would be quite natural to
presume so. ;^)

Sources that mention radon as a by-product of burning coal. This is only
from the first page of MSN search.

The last one maintains that "Radon is relatively high in uranium-rich rocks
such as ancient granites, high-organic shales and coal beds. (Coal burning
is a major source of uranium pollution.)"

No, burning coal doesn't transmute elements, but it can release radon into
the air. If you cook and heat your home with coal, like many of my
neighbors, then this can be a problem.
