In addition, uranium (238U) and thorium (232Th) contents were evaluated in the same samples studied by using CR-39 and LR-115 type II solid state nuclear track detectors (SSNTDs). The influence of the phosphate industry wastes on the concentrations of both radioactive and non-radioactive elements of the samples studied was investigated. %G English %2 https://insu.hal.science/insu-00318528/document %2 https://insu.hal.science/insu-00318528/file/Erramli-JEnvironmentalRadioactivity-2008.pdf %L insu-00318528 %U https://insu.hal.science/insu-00318528 %~ INSU %~ CNRS %~ UNIV-ORLEANS %~ CEMHTI %~ ISTO %~ OSUC %~ INC-CNRS %~ TEST2-HALCNRS
