Naturally occurring radionuclides and their geochemical interactions at a geothermal site in the North German Basin

The activities of the most common, naturally occurring radionuclides ²³⁸U, ²²⁶Ra, ²¹⁰Pb, ²²⁸Ra, ²²⁸Th, and ⁴⁰K were measured by gamma-ray spectrometry in samples from reservoir rocks, geothermal fluids, and mineral precipitates at the geothermal research site Groß Schönebeck (North German Basin).

Zusammenfassung:The activities of the most common, naturally occurring radionuclides ²³⁸U, ²²⁶Ra, ²¹⁰Pb, ²²⁸Ra, ²²⁸Th, and ⁴⁰K were measured by gamma-ray spectrometry in samples from reservoir rocks, geothermal fluids, and mineral precipitates at the geothermal research site Groß Schönebeck (North German Basin). Results demonstrated that the specific activity of the reservoir rock is within the range of the mean concentration in the upper earth crust of
