“…The results indicating that the mean values for D R , AEDE and AGED were 106.8nGy/h, 1.07mSv/y, and 744.4µSvy-1 respectively. The estimated mean values were higher than those of the worldwide average which are 57 nGyh − 1 for D R , 0.07mSv/y for AEDE and 2984µSv/y for AGED (Gad et al, 2019). Due to the elevated mean calculated values of the radiological hazard indexes therefore, the mining activities in Kyerwa District can poses radiological hazard to the mining community.…”

“…They include, for example, mineral or elemental composition, pH, moisture content, and grain size. These variables help increase the activity concentration at the land level [13,20,21,23,24,25]. In the author's opinion, the Middle East region is nearly similar in its geological formations; thus, the radionuclides contents are close in magnitude.…”

“…The excess lifetime cancer risk in all types of cement was higher than the worldwide average value which is 0.29 10 -3 [10]. The values of ELCR equivalent to 1000, 100, 10, and 1 µSv y −1 will increase the risk of developing mortal cancer by 4%, 0.4%, 0.04%, and 0.004%, respectively [37,38]. Even all ELCR calculated are https://doi.org/10.1007/s42452-020-03904-7…”
