Abstract The Bayan Obo Fe–REE–Nb deposit is the world's largest rare earth element (REE)
resource and with the increasing focus on critical metal resources has become a focus of …

Compared to all published data from carbonatites and granitoids, the fluorapatite
compositions in the Songwe Hill carbonatite, determined by EPMA and LA ICP-MS, have the …

Carbonatites and associated rocks are the main source of rare earth elements (REEs),
metals essential to modern technologies. REE mineralization occurs in hydrothermal …

Carbonatites and related rocks are the premier source for light rare earth element (LREE)
deposits. Here, we outline an ore formation model for LREE-mineralised carbonatites …

Deposits of rare earth elements (REEs) in igneous rocks have played an instrumental role in
meeting the growing industrial demand for these elements since the 1960s. Among the …

Abstract The Cenozoic Mianning–Dechang (MD) rare earth element (REE) belt in eastern
Tibet is an important source of light REE in southwest China. The belt is 270 km long and 15 …

Carbonatites are the most important primary sources for the rare earth elements (REEs).
While fractional crystallization of carbonate minerals results in the enrichment of volatiles …

Whereas the genesis of carbonatitic rare earth element (REE) deposits has long been a
focus of study, the controls on mobilization and mineralization of REEs during magmatic …

Abstract The Bear Lodge alkaline complex in northeastern Wyoming (USA) is host to
potentially economic rare-earth mineralization in carbonatite and carbonatite-related veins …

A review of occurrences of potassic and sodic fenitization around carbonatites is presented,
including several new examples and oceanic ones. Taken in conjunction with the many …
