Popis:	The relation connecting the concentration of uranium and thorium atoms in geological samples with α-track production rates in plastic track detector LR-115 type II and fission track rates in Lexan has been used for the analysis of radioactive fossil bones. The track measurements from the samples under secular equilibrium define the total uranium and thorium concentrations whereas fission track measurements yield uranium concentration alone. Combining both the measurements uranium and thorium contents are determined.
