Description:

The main objective of this study was to estimate the environmental and health risk of Šar Mountains (Kosovo) for depleted uranium contamination. The risk assessment of the contamination is needed, since in the spring of 1999, conflict with bombarding took place in the territory of the Western Balkans, during which depleted uranium ammunition was used. In Serbia and Montenegro, such tests were performed and based on them, some territories were decontaminated. Šar Mountains is of special interest as it is one of the few water-rich areas in Kosovo. Soil and water samples were taken from characteristic places in the Šar Mountains aquatorium. Tests of the samples were performed under well-controlled conditions. The measurement uncertainty was less than 5%. Based on the obtained results, it was concluded that there was no contamination of the Šar Mountains with depleted uranium. This conclusion can be extended to the wider area around the Šar Mountains, as it is a safe area surrounded by high mountains.
