    The LANUV report should be criticized for several reasons: What is striking about the gamma spectrometry values ​​published by LANUV is that the measuring range for thorium (93 keV = emission energy) is hidden because the LANUV report only increases the measuring range from the value above than 100 keV. Even if it is taken into account that the spectrum of all thorium derivative products in the area...
