Abstract: In a preliminary study, we found an amount of HREE in Zoujiashan uranium deposit as associated ores. To recycle these rare resources and explore their origin are very important. The basic work is to find out the characteristics of HREE associated in Zoujiashan uranium deposit. To do so, we used the electron probe micro-analyzer (EPMA) and laser ablation-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) to analyze their occurrence characteristics. The results show that the deposit contains mainly monazite, roentgenite, and xenotime. The LREE/HREE ratios of the monazite and roentgenite are high, a LREE enrichment type; While the LREE/HREE ratio of the xenotime is low, a HREE enrichment type. The minerals of uranium and thorium including pitchblende, brannerite, uranothorite, coffinite, thorite and zircon are of the type of HREE enrichment. Their total REE (∑REE+Y) is high with a range of (3 805.78-65 307.00)×10-6, their value of LREE/HREE is low with a range of 0.01-0.80, and the average is at 0.29. The other associated minerals,including apatite and potassium feldspar,are of the LREE enrichment type, while the fluorite is of the both types. Both LREE and HREE enrichment in the illite and pyrite are not significant. The HREE exists mainly in the form of isomorphism in the minerals of xenotime, uranium, and thorium, and a small amount of HREE is in the associated minerals.

Key words: HREE, uranium, occurrence characteristics, EPMA, LA-ICP-MS, Zoujiashan uranium deposit, Xiangshan orefield
