The focus was on the mines that are aiming at off-taking of uranium as a co-product or a by-product, or are processing ores, which contain high levels of NORMs. The project concentrated on investigating how the environmental factors and different origins of radionuclides affected their activity concentrations and transfer factors in ore, soil, water and vegetation. | | Keywords: | NORM, mining, uranium | | Publication date: | 07 Sept 2015 | | ISBN: | ISBN 978-87-7893-434-5 | | Number of downloads: | 5425 | | Download: |  NKS-350.pdf |
