Abstract. The work aimed to assess the impact of Baza S uranium ore storage site and Sukha-chevskoye uranium mill tailing impoundment on physiological parameters of the test plant morpho-sis. The content of natural and man-induced radio nuclides is given as well as exposure dose rate at the places of their growing. U238, Th230, Ra226, Pb210, Th232, K40 and Cs137 concentrations were measured using HРGe low-background semi-conductor gamma-spectrometer with GMХ40 ORTEC detector, exposure dose rate of gamma radiation was measured using DKS 97 dosimeter. The paper presents the data on the soil radioactive contamination with physiological parameters of the test plant morphosis. No correlation was established between the bioindicator damage level, exposure dose of gamma radiation and radionuclide specific activity.

Keywords: uranium mill tailing impoundment, uranium ore storage site, radionuclides, specific activity, exposure dose rate of gamma radiation, test plants.
