This paper presents an extensive literature review on the various sources of radon such as
ore body, backfill mill tailings, broken ore and mine water in underground uranium mines …

The radon diffusion coefficient and the free radon production rate are important parameters
for describing radon migration in the fragmented uranium ore. In order to determine the two …

Accurate uranium analysis, and particularly for isotope measurements, is essential in many
fields, including environmental studies, geology, hydrogeology, the nuclear industry, health …

Prediction of radon flux from the fractured zone of a propagating cave mine is basically
associated with uncertainty and complexity. For instance, there is restricted access to these …

Radon, known to be a human carcinogen, is one of the most concerned radionuclides in
uranium mining which need to be monitored and controlled. A large amount of radon is …

The radon diffusion coefficient and the free radon production rate are important parameters
for used to describe the migration of radon in porous emanation media. However, the …

This paper presents a comparative study of the quantitative estimation of 222Rn and its
health risk from various sources in four underground uranium mines. 222Rn exhalation rates …

Coarser mill tailings used as backfill to stabilize the stoped out areas in underground
uranium mines is a potential source of radon contamination. This paper presents the …

All rare earth deposits contain natural occurring radioactive materials primarily composed of
radionuclides from the decay series of elements such as uranium and thorium, and …

Purpose This study aims to identify the potential sources of radon exhalation and its
measurement in underground uranium mines to control the radiation levels within safe limits …
