Volatility of Americium



Greetings to all:

I am trying to work through an improbable scenario here.  If a fire broke out
in an area where Am-241 sealed sources were stored, how much (if any) of
the Am-241 would be lost to the atmosphere and how much would remain in
the ashes?  

Thanx in advance,
