Abstract:
Abstract Radon (222Rn) and thoron (220Rn) from soil gas are very significant factors that can affect the indoor radon level in the first floor or in the basement. China is one of the countries with the highest thorium content in the world. Therefore, it is very significant to study 222Rn/220Rn concentration in the soil in Shenzhen City (SC). A 222Rn/220Rn survey was performed using a portable radon monitor (model RAD7) at 69 sites, covered a total area of 1800 km2 in 2013 to get the original data for radon risk estimation in SC. The average values of 222Rn and 220Rn concentration of soil gas o

Abstract 222Rn and 220Rn surface exhalation rates from earthen building materials used in high background radiation areas of Homa and Ruri, Kenya have been measured using an accumulation chamber coupled with RAD7 detector. Activity concentrations of 226Ra and 232Th in the building materials were determined by γ-ray spectroscopy. In Homa the average 222Rn surface exhalation was 1 ± 0.1 mBqm−2 s−1, while that of 220Rn was 18 ± 2 Bqm−2 s−1; in Ruri 222Rn was 0.9 ± 0.1 mBqm−2 s−1 and 220Rn was 25 ± 3 Bqm−2 s−1. 222Rn was 26 times lower than world average and 220Rn was higher by a factor of 21.

Authors selected 5 intakes of groundwaters outflowing from carbonate rocks in Roztocze region in Poland and measured activity concentrations of 222Rn and 222Ra. The average values of 222Rn and 226Ra activity concentrations were: 5.3 (min. 2.0, max. 8.3 Bq/dm3) and 0.06 Bq/dm3 (from <0.06 to 0.07 Bq/dm3) respectively. To make a comparison authors made also investigations in groundwaters from other regions built of carbonate rocks in Poland (Sudetes, Kraków-Częstochowa Upland, Lublin Upland, Tatra Mountains). In groundwaters from these regions, 222Rn activity concentration was from 2.2 to 47.

This research aims to measure radon (222Rn) and thoron (220Rn) concentrations for selected thermostone bricks samples produced in Iraq. 222Rn and 220Rn concentrations were measured using the active method (RAD7 detector). Also, the inhalation dose for the year was calculated using the 222Rn and 220Rn concentrations. The results of this study indicated that the range of radon concentration values was between 8.00 Bq/m3 to 66.50 Bq/m3; its mean value was 28.22±3.89 Bq/m3. At the same time, the values of thoron concentrations ranged from 27.10 Bq/m3 to 129.00 Bq/m3, with a mean value of 55.46±7.1

Direct in situ measurements of geogenic radon and thoron exhalation are limited to a few locations worldwide while indoor measurements are more common. Potentially hazardous zones for long-term inhabitancy can be characterized, considering spatial geogenic radon exhalation data acquired before any construction activities.

After the research period, mining plants were opened one after the other, and an ore processing plant was also established. The ore wealth found in the Mecsek Mountains was less favorable than average, 1 ton of ore contained 1.2 kg of uranium metal. By 1989, Hungarian uranium ore mining had become uneconomical, and a government decision was made to close it down, dating back to 1997. The reculturation process began in 1998.
