The analysis of the Azov deposit of zirconium-rare earth ores as the object capable on qualitative and quantitative parameters to become key for creation and modernization of rare earth subsectors of the industry of Ukraine is carried out. On the basis of the generalized characteristics of zirconium-rare earth mineralization, conclusions were drawn regarding the nature of the increased radioactivity at the Azov deposit, which is mainly due to the presence of certain minerals in the ores. The actual radioactive minerals were found only as inclusions in zircon and do not make a significant contribution to the natural radioactivity of ores. It has been established that the radioactivity is uranium-thorium due to the inclusion of these elements in the composition of the aforementioned minerals. The results of the radiation-hygienic assessment of core samples from the deposit are presented. According to the existing standards, the enclosing rocks of the supra-ore and under-ore strata can be used in all types of construction without restrictions. The ores of the deposit are assigned to the third class in terms of the level of effective specific activity. It was found that there is a significant direct relationship between gamma activity and the total REE content in the field. There is also a correlation between the content of U and Th, the dose rate of γ-radiation and the content of the total REE. It was shown that there is no relationship between these indicators and the ZrO2 content. Analysis of the gamma-ray logs showed the possibility of confidently drawing the boundaries of the ore intervals and fixing the inter-ore intervals. The main stages of the technological process of integrated development, enrichment, processing and storage of enrichment tailings, slags and sludge, which ensure the minimum impact of production on the environment and human health, have been determined.
