Rock salt and limestone are studied to determine their suitability for use as a radio wave transmission medium in an ultra high energy (UHE) cosmic neutrino detector. The detector would detect radio wave generated by the Askar'yan effect (coherent Cherenkov from negative excess charges in an electromagnetic shower) in the interaction of the UHE neutrinos with the high-density medium. We have measured the radio wave attenuation lengths of the rock salt samples from the Asse mine in Germany at 9.4 GHz and found it to be longer than 3.3 m and then whereas under the assumption of constant tanδ with respect to frequency, we estimate it by extrapolation to be longer than 330 m at 94 MHz.
