Radon in Water and Air - Map, Radiation Levels in well-water and bedrock geology

Map of Radon and Types of Bedrock (Average Radon levels in Water (pCi/L))

The majority of wells have levels of radon under 10,000 pCi/L. While there are great variations in all areas, high radon levels are most apt to be found in wells over granites and "high grade" metamorphic rock.
