Natural radioactivity levels and evaluation of radiological hazards in some Egyptian ornamental stones

Geological materials usually contaminated with naturally occurring radioactive materials (NORM) have become a focus of great attention. The radioactivity concentrations of 226Ra, 232Th and 40K in some ornamental stones in Egypt, were measured using a high-resolution gamma ray spectrometer. The natur...
