Nuclear forensics case in Croatia: elevated U and Ra radioactive material found at Karasovići border
2024
Overview
A case of illegal possession of suspect material at the Karasovići border crossing in Croatia was recently recorded and resolved. An increased activity of
226
Ra was detected in the suspect material. The seized material consisted of 2 types of samples, black powder and jewellery. The material was analysed by the high-resolution gamma spectrometry method in the Laboratory for Radioecology of the Ruđer Bošković Institute. The seized material was confirmed to contain uranium. The material was additionally analysed by the X-ray diffraction method. Identified mineral phases have not been found in Croatia so far, therefore it is not possible that the material in question originates from Croatia.
