Radon-222 diffusion length and exhalation characteristics of uraniferous waste rock and application to mine site remediation in the Australian wet-dry tropics

The diffusion length of 222Rn in uraniferous waste rock was determined through a novel experiment. Large PVC columns were filled to different depths in the range from 0.5 m to 3.0 m with waste rock material from the Ranger uranium mine and the build-up of 222Rn activity concentration in the column h...
