Sources of uncertainty in field gamma-ray spectrometry: Implications for exploration in the Lower-Middle Jurassic sedimentary succession of the Lusitanian Basin (Portugal)

摘要

Uncertainties related to in situ gamma-ray spectrometry measurements have been widely acknowledged. Despite being commonly used in exploration, the evaluation of the uncertainty range of K, U and Th gamma spectrometry field measurements is generally limited due to the lack of corresponding laboratory measurements. Estimating uncertainty, however, is essential to ensure reliable and accurate results.
