Carbonatites are formed from volatile-rich melts, commonly associated with a characteristic
hydrothermal footprint. However, studies of their fluid inclusions are relatively scarce and …

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

Rare earth elements (REEs) are considered critical metals globally. About 62% of the global
resources of REEs occur associated with carbonatites and alkaline complexes. However …

Abstract Development of renewable energy infrastructure requires critical raw materials,
such as the rare earth elements (REEs, including scandium) and niobium, and is driving …

Studies of fluid inclusions in carbonatitic rocks are essential for understanding
physicochemical processes involved in carbonatite-related hydrothermal ore mineralization …

Recent experimental works suggest that complexation with alkalis, carbonate, and hydroxyl
groups enhances rare earth element (REE) transport and HREE/LREE fractionation, seen in …

The Vuoriyarvi Devonian carbonatite–ijolite–pyroxenite–olivinite complex comprises several
carbonatite fields: Neske Vara, Tukhta-Vara, and Petyayan-Vara. The most common …

The geochemical behavior and genesis of rare earth element (REE) ores remains poorly
understood. In addition, the processes responsible for many features observed in REE ore …

A mineralogical mapping (terrain analysis) based on micro-mounts has been performed in
the Archipelago of the Canary Islands, Spain. The rare elements Be, F, Li, Nb, Ta, Zr, Hf, and …

Rare earth elements (REE) are critical to a wide range of technologies ranging from mobile
phones to wind turbines. Processing and extraction of REE minerals from ore bodies is …
