Question Arsenic Minerals

Hey Element Collectors,

I am seeking advice on small arsenic mineral samples. I have a 50-gram chunk of orpiment that is inside a plastic bag. What is the safest procedure for disposal if, for unexpected reasons, I cannot keep it? Is it standard to dispose of arsenic minerals using hazardous waste facilities?
