“…There are few works worldwide about concentrations and behaviour of natural radionuclides in locations affected by AMD, but high activity concentrations in these polluted environments have been found mainly for Uisotopes (Fernandes et al, 1998;Yamamoto et al, 2010;Durand, 2012;Madzivire, et al, 2014). In the study area some previous works also shown large concentrations of natural radionuclides with enhanced contents of U-Th isotopes and 210 Po in both waters and sediments (Hierro et al, 2012, Hierro et al, 2013, Blasco et al, 2016, Manjón et al, 2019a.…”
