For anyone watching this, thorium 232 puts out such small amounts of gamma that it’s not generally considered to be a gamma emitter. While a couple of the daughter isotopes are gamma emitters, the half lives are so short and the isotopes are so far down the decay chain that the risk of absorbing a significant amount of gamma is next to none. This piece is also relatively inactive, for reference a vintage camera lens containing thorium dioxide can emit as much as 28,000cpm of radiation
