Abstract
The thermoluminescence (T L) characteristics and dating of some natural samples which were collected from different areas in the eastern desert of egypt have been studied. The T L- glow curves of all natural samples show three peaks, shallow peak, dosimetric peak and dating peak. T L response to gamma rays for the samples under examination shows a linear response from 4.5 Gy up to 7.5 kGy followed by saturation. Ages of these geological rocks from the selected areas A (hutait), B(Urga), C(Tendba), D(Sebaya) and E(Atad) in the Eastern desert were found to be 4 X 108, 1.5 X 109, 0.5 X 108, 2.5 X 107 and 3 X 107 years, respectively. It can be concluded that these geological rocks belong to the precambrian period of the history. 4 figs., 4 tabs.
