Abstract

In this study, the natural radioactivity levels of the ophiolites in the western region of Antalya, their anomaly values, and effects on human health are determined. At the end of the analysis, the radioactivity values have been found to vary between 29 and 986 Bq/kg for the 40K, 0–212 Bq/kg for 238U (Ra), and 1–104 Bq/kg for 232Th activities. Since some locations in Tekirova, Kemer, and Kumluca have been determined to have higher radioactivity levels, the people living in these areas should have a check-up.
