Natural radioactivity of fresh waters in Slovenia, Yugoslavia

Kobal, I. / Vaupotič, J. / Mittć, D. / Kristan, J. / Ančik, M. / Jerančič, S. / Škofljanec, M.

Abstract The radioactivity of surface and ground waters in Slovenia, Yugoslavia, was assayed. About 700 samples of surface and 500 samples of ground waters were analyzed for ²²²Rn, ²²⁶Ra, natural uranium, and gross beta activity. In surface waters the highest concentrations found were 5365 Bq m⁻³, 92 Bq m⁻³, 215 Bq m⁻³, and 0.4 mg m⁻³ for radon, radium, gross beta, and uranium, respectively. In surface waters the radioactivity is higher in the region of uranium ore deposits, in the vicinity of a phosphate processing plant, and in the region rich in thermal and mineral waters.
