Popis: The black shale is considered one of the most important rock units in the lower part of Um Bogma Formation, where it contains the uranium, heavy metals and rare earth elements mineralization. The black shale samples were analyzed radiochemically by using alpha spectrometry technique. Most of uranium in the studied samples is authigenic and the Th/U ratio confirms the deposition of uranium in reducing environment. The activity ratios of the studied black shale samples were characterized by
