Abstract
Radon has been extensively studied in the Singhbhum Thrust Belt (STB) of eastern India where mining and processing of uranium ore has been in progress for over four decades. Emanation from the soil is the main natural source of environmental radon. Releases from mine and emanations from waste rocks and tailings are the technological sources. Rn studies in the environment, dwellings and ground waters in STB are reviewed in this paper.Entities:
