Default Silver glass on Uranium Yellow?

Has anyone tried using any of the silver glasses on a base of 104 Uranium Yellow? I would expect some really nice reactions from this combo, but would worry about compatibility from the metals in both glasses.

My understanding is 104 uranium does not have any uranium in it, it's just called that because of the color.

The Ornela Czech and vintage rods do, but they're not 104, they're an odd coe that I don't mix them with anything.

Effetre Uranium pastel isn't especially reactive with silver glass or any other glass. It's one of my favorite colors, a very stable pale spring green.

Love it with terra. I think it makes it sing a bit, but beware you will get the dark reaction lines with most colors.
No comparability issues (always watch encasing yellows) just reaction lines

I think it's a pretty good base for striking silver glass. It's not really a very reactive colour at all apart from some minor reactions with silver, which is nice.

Here are some test beads I made in 2012:
