The mineralization of deposits of rare metals such as tantalum and niobium in China is mostly related to granite pegmatite. The enrichment of rare metals in these deposits is accompanied by the formation of radioactive minerals, such as albite, monazite, and high-grade uranium, and these deposits have paragenetic and associated minerals uranium deposits. Therefore, radioactive prospecting has become the most convenient and effective method to explore deposits of rare metals such as REEs, Nb, and Ta. Based on the close correlation between mineralization and radioactivity of rare earth minerals, this study fully investigated the parameter characteristics of the surveyed energy spectrum data through the combination of airborne radioactivity measurement and ground gamma spectrometry measurement to determine prospecting indicators. A new niobium-tantalum-rubidium polymetallic mineralized point was discovered in the Nancha area, Yichun City using the radioactive prospecting method, which was thus proven effective.
