The results of the gamma spectrometry analysis of the 40 samples of highly radioactive granites used in the construction industry in Serbia are presented. Based on the measured activity concentrations of 226Ra, 232Th and 40K, radiological hazard indices, annual effective doses, as well as indoor radon concentration were determined. Calculated indoor radon concentration caused by investigated granite samples in 25% of cases exceeds the upper limit of 300 Bq m−3 recommended by the World Health Organization.
