Radionuclides and the uranium isotope fingerprint of globally produced phosphate rocks, mineral fertilizers, and phosphogypsum waste and its potential effect on the environment.

The occurrence of uranium (U), thorium (Th), and radium (Ra) in phosphate rocks (PRs) leads to enrichment of these radionuclides in produced fertilizers and phosphogypsum waste byproducts. This study presents a global dataset of U- and Th- series rad…
