PART 2Table of naturally occurring radionuclides (which are not processed for their radioactive, fissile or fertile properties)
Values for exemption from notification and registration for naturally occurring radionuclides in solid materials (which are not processed for their radioactive, fissile or fertile properties), which apply whether or not the radionuclide is in secular equilibrium with its progeny

Note
Nuclides carrying the suffix “+” in the above table represent parent nuclides and their progeny as listed in the table below. The dose contributions of those progeny are taken into account in the dose calculation (thus requiring only the exemption level of the parent radionuclide to be considered).
