Abstract
The mass attenuation coefficients of the 59.54 keV radiation of 241Am point source in boron ores such as tincal, ulexite and colemanite were determined experimentally by a scintillation detector and theoretically. Since boron ores contain boron, hydrogen, and a lot of elements, they may be used as shielding against neutrons and gammas simultaneously, e.g. for shielding 241Am/Be neutron sources, as they emit both gammas and neutrons.
