Assessment of the potential radiation hazards posed by Nubian sandstone, Egypt
Abstract The study found that the activity concentrations of the radionuclides 238U, 232Th and 40K in the sandstone are 32 ± 13, 29.6 ± 12.2, and 132.6 ± 86.4 Bq kg−1, respectively. These values are lower than the reported worldwide limits of 33, 45, and 412 Bq kg−1. According to the present study,...
