The locus of a processing zone advancing through a fragmented permeable mass of formation particles in an in situ oil shale retort in a subterranean formation containing oil shale and which generates an effluent fluid is determined by placing a radionuclide source for providing an identifiable radionuclide, and monitoring effluent fluid from the processing zone for presence of such radionuclide. The radionuclide source provides radionuclide at a predetermined temperature.
