Background radioactivity of construction materials, raw substance and ready-made CaMoO4 crystals

The results of measurements of natural radioactive isotopes content in different source materials of natural and enriched composition used for CaMoO4 scintillation crystal growing are presented. The crystals are to be used in the experiment to search for neutrinoless double beta decay of 100Mo.
