Naturally occurring 197Au and 58Ni foils were subjected to the neutron irradiation by placing them in a dry tube-I of Kalpakkam Mini reactor to produce gamma emitting 198Au and 58Co nuclear reaction products. The efficiency study of high-purity germanium detector corresponding to characteristic gamma energies 0.4118 and 0.8107 MeV of 198Au and 58Co was carried out by the methods of calibration of 152Eu and covariance.
