1. Light Rare Earth (LRE) Carbonate Key Raw Materials Analysis
The main raw material of Light Rare Earth (LRE) Carbonate is rare earth ores. In nature, Rare earth elements have been found in both primary and secondary mineral ores. Primary ores refer to those formed in the Earth’s crust via magmatic-hydrothermal processes, whereas secondary ores are formed on the Earth’s surface via weathering and sedimentary processes. The former mainly contains carbonatite, alkaline igneous rock, and hydrothermal type deposits. The latter mainly includes ionic clay, placer, and marine sediment type deposits. In these kinds of ore deposits, hundreds of rare earth minerals have been documented so far, in which monazite ((Ce, La, Nd, Th) PO4) and REE fluorocarbonate (e.g., bastnäsite, ((Ce, La) (CO3) F)) are in commercial use. Xenotime (YPO4), apatite (Ca5(PO4)3(F, Cl, OH)), allanite ((Ce, Ca, Y)2(Al, Fe3+)3(SiO4)3OH), and loparite ((Ce, La, Na, Ca, Sr) (Ti, Nb) O3) are also commonly reported but not currently exploited.
