Radio-Geological Survey of Czechoslovakia

Abstract

BOHEMIA is an excellent region for radio-geological investigation. In the first place, we have the ore region of Jáchymov (Joachimsthal), where pitch-blende is found. However, in the Krkonoˇe (Riesen Gebirge) and in the Jizera Mts., where there are no deposits of pitch-blende, strong radioactive springs (containing up to 200 Mache units) occur very frequently along faults, contacts, etc. This district has been investigated by us radio-geologically in the same manner as that in which Genser investigated the German portion of the Krušné Hory (Erz Gebirge)1.
