In this study, radiogenic heat productions of marble and glazed tiles samples are calculated based on the elemental concentrations of uranium (in terms of mg/kg), thorium (in terms of mg/kg) and potassium (in terms of %) in the samples collected from various provinces in Turkey. The radiogenic heat productions from the marble tile samples varied from 0.05 to 2.17 µW/m3 with an average of 0.26 µW/m3. The average of the radiogenic heat production of the marble tile samples is approximately four times lower than the average continental crust of 0.9 µW/m3.
