The Data shows all relevant parameters for the calculation of effective doses received from naturally occurring radioactivity of polymetallic nodules for site-specific (realistic) exposure scenarios at the Federal Institute for Geosciences and Natural Resources in Hanover, Germany and a theoretical industrial scale, pyro metallurgical processing route for the beneficiation of nodules under conservative assumptions.
