Abstract
Radioactivity level is a factor that affects of environmental variations. In this study, quaternary
sequence was evaluated by the discussion of radioactivity anomalies. For this purpose, an
example drill samples of quaternary sequence were found from Golden Horn (Haliç) quaternary
sequence. Samples were prepared with grinding and sieving carefully. Then, the measurements
were taken in two different counting system for beta and alpha measurements. Alpha and beta
radioactivity was evaluated by using related calibration curves. Results of the study, it is evident
that especially alpha count rates can be used for the clay evaluation because of the clay which
has more magmatic elements that include uranium and thorium in it. So it is shown that the
alpha counting technique can be used for general evaluation of the quaternary sequence easily.
