Assessment of naturally occurring 40K, 232Th and 238U and their associated radiological hazard indices in soils used for building in Ondo West Local Government Area, Southwestern, Nigeria
The naturally occurring 40K, 232Th and 238U radionuclide contents in the soil used as building materials in Ondo West Local Government, Southwest Nigeria were determined using gamma spectrometric technique. The radiological hazards were estimated by employing several indices consisting of radium equ...
