摘要：
Rapid scanning of numerous rock samples when prospecting for uranium and thorium ores can be facilitated by using the shorter-lived nuclides. The samples are activated during short epithermal neutron irradiations and the 20-min activities of 239U and 233Th are observed instrumentally with a small Ge(Li) detector. The detection limits for uranium and thorium are less than 1 ppm and 20 ppm, respectively. © 1979.
