Radon gas is a degradation product of naturally-occurring deposits
of uranium in soils.  Therefore, where uranium is found in the soil,
so is the daughter compound, radon.

In reference to Radon gas. As far as I know it's basically naturally
occurring in our native soils. Some localities particularly near the
eastern seaboard of the US have a significant preponderance and in some
other areas of our country it is a rarity to find much in the way of
detectable quantities.
