Even lots of geological work have been taken out before the new century, less and less money has been invested in the Nanling region, South China, during the past two decades, resulted in the quickly decrease of inferred mineral resources. Recently, with the new discover of some W-Sn deposits in Nanling, such as the Furong tin deposit in South Hunan and the Baxiannao tungsten deposit in south Jiangxi, more and more attention has been paid to this important metallogenic belt in China. That means, in China, even western China is still the most attractive area for investment of mineral resources, Nanling is also an ideal region for further prospecting and might be one of the most possible regions to find new deposits recently. So, it is suggested that, research works and innovation are urgently needed for prospecting in a new area or for a existed mine, especially the studies on the regional metallogeny of the whole region, the minerogenetic series, the mineralization system, the source and some elements such as W and Sn and the mechanism of their unusual enrichment, the relationship between conventional and unconventional dominant mineral resources.
