Thorium, uranium and potassium levels in Brazilian geological sediment as determined by gamma-ray spectroscopy and instrumental neutron activation analysis

Thorium, uranium and potassium levels in Brazilian geological sediment as determined by gamma-ray spectroscopy and instrumental neutron activation analysis

Brazilian coastal terraces contain abundant evidence that can be used to explain how the coastal plain evolved during the last 120k years. These studies include geochronology of marine sediments based on physical methods of dating by dosimetry, especially thermoluminescence. To determine terrace ag...
