SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: MSHA uses this information to evaluate the effectiveness of a mine operator’s protection program in demonstrating compliance with the radiation standards. Gamma radiation occurs where radioactive materials are present. Natural sources include uranium and other radioactive elements found in rocks, soils, and ground water. Gamma radiation hazards may also be found near radiation sources in surface and underground mines operations using Xray machines, weightometers, nuclear gauges and diffraction units. Such gauges contain radioactive materials and are mounted outside tanks, pipes, bins, hoppers or other types of vessels; gamma rays measure the level and density of liquids, slurries or solids. Regulations 30 CFR 57.5047 requires records be kept of cumulative individual gamma radiation exposure to ensure that annual exposure does not exceed 5 Rems. It is intended to protect the health of workers in mines with radioactive ores. Currently, there are three radioactive ore mines in the United States: one active facility and two non-producing underground uranium mines.
