Determination of the Radiological Risk Associated with Naturally Occurring Radioactive Materials (NORM) at Selected Quarry Sites
3.1. Activity Concentration. The activity concentrations of the radionuclides 238U, 232Th and 40K in the granite rocks of selected quarry sites spread across AMAC, Bwari and Kuje Area Councils of the FCT, Abuja, Nigeria are presented in Table 1. The activity concentration of 238U ranged from 37.41 ± 5.45 to 110.16 ±.
