Re Tylium being radioactive. The Ovions mine it without any protective gear and Starbuck and Apollo are able to set it alight with just their blasters. My feeling is that it isn't radioactive.
Re the link: Yes, exactly...

On Tylium: It may not be dangerously radioactive in its natural state, but refining the raw material may involve adding to its atomic structure, much in the same way that we manufacture the trans-uranics like Plutonium and Californium
