Suitability of Quaternary Sediments of Wadi Arar, Saudi Arabia, as Construction Materials: An Environmental Radioactivity Approach

The surficial quaternary deposits of Wadi Arar were radioactively evaluated for construction purposes. The concentrations of 226Ra, 232Th, and 40K were used to evaluate the radioactive suitability of Wadi Arar. Gamma-spectrometry technique with an HPGe detector was used to measure the concentrations...
