Primary results of 218Po measurement in finding buried uranium ore bodies

The prompt radon detection method in finding buried uranium ore bodies, 218Po method, is presented. The author describes the working principles, features and exploration results of this method, and also explains the possibility of finding buried uranium ore bodies by means of 218Po method. In the end, the author lays emphasis on the interpretation method for data obtained from 218Po measurement. Through field testing, the author considers that the 218Po method can be used not only in finding buried uranium ore bodies but also in predicting quantitatively the dimension and depth of buried ore bodies
