The activity concentrations of radionuclides in grape molasses soil samples collected from Zile (Tokat) plain in the Central Black Sea region of Turkey were measured by using gamma spectrometer with a NaI(Tl) detector. Also, the concentrations of ²²²Rn in soil samples and air were estimated essentially taking the activity concentrations of ²²⁶Ra measured in soil samples. Grape molasses soil samples with calcium carbonate content are used for sedimentation for making molasses in this region. The average activity concentrations of ²³²Th, ²²⁶Ra, ⁴⁰K, and ¹³⁷Cs were found as 62 ± 2, 68 ± 3, 479 ± 35, and 8.0 ± 0.3 Bq kg ⁻¹, respectively. The average concentrations of ²²²Rn in soil samples and air were estimated to be 50 kBq m ⁻³ and 144 Bq m ⁻³. From the activity concentrations, absorbed gamma dose rate in outdoor air (D), annual effective dose from external exposure (E E), annual effective dose from inhalation of radon (E I), and excess lifetime cancer risk (ELCR) were estimated in order to assess radiological risks. The average values of D, E E, E I, and ELCR were found to be 90 nGy h ⁻¹, 110 μSv y ⁻¹, 1360 μSv y ⁻¹, and 4 × 10 ⁻⁴, respectively.
