[ 1 ] - An evaluation of the equivalent dose due to natural radioactivity in the soil around the consolidated Tin mine in Baukuru-Jos, plateau state of Nigeria

Background: The equivalent dose in the human body due to the natural gamma-emitting radionucides (238U, 232Th and 40K) in the surface soil surrounding the Consolidated Tin mine site in Bukuru-Jos, Nigeria has been determined in this study. Materials and Methods: Measurements of the soil natural radioactivity were made using a multi-channel pulseheight analyzer (Canberra Series 10 plus) coupled ...
