[en] Australia is a major producer and exporter of ores and minerals (coal, oil, gas, iron ore, bauxite, phosphate rock and mineral sands) which unfortunately can contain NORM. In some industries the management of possible NORM/TENORM exposures is already being. In the oil and gas industry for example radiation protection measures are implemented for staff undertaking maintenance on non-contaminated equipment. However there is still widespread non-regulation in other industries that adequately address the potential occupational and public health concerns relating to NORM/TENORM.
