Abstract


The paper presents the results of testing radionuclide content in soil and clay samples on the surface mine "Zbegovi" in Donje Crniljevo, Serbia. The results of the study show that the activity of clay samples and surrounding soil derives mainly from natural radionuclides: 232Th, 238U and 40K. The radioactivity of the samples was determined by the gamma spectrometric method using HPGe detector with relative efficiency of 56.2%. The obtained results show that the tested samples can be used as material for brick and ceramic products, cosmetics as well as the fact that the tested clay deposit does not have a negative impact on humans, plants and animals.


Keywords

clay, soil, radioactivity, 232Th, 238U, 40K.
