Radiological monitoring of land

Abstract

The article considers the results of the radiological monitoring of the land plot of the territory allocated for the construction of the tailings storage facility. In particular, the dose rate of gamma radiation and the flux density of 222Rn were determined. The average dose rate of gamma radiation was 0.11±0.02 mSv/h. The average value of the flow density of 222Rn, in turn, is 43.7±13.1 MBq/m2*s. According to the results of the radiological monitoring, it was found that the values of the studied indicators do not exceed the maximum permissible level – 80 MBq/m2*s and meets the requirements of SanRiN 2.6.1.2523-09 “Radiation safety standards”.
