Crystallization, replacement, and redox pathways governing rare earth carbonate and phosphate formation
Puntos clave
The study aims to understand the multi-step processes involved in the formation of REE carbonate and phosphate minerals.
Analyzed the crystallization processes of REE minerals
Examined the effects of temperature on mineral formation
Investigated redox conditions influencing crystallization and replacement
Crystallization and replacement processes are complex and interrelated
REE chemistry significantly affects the mineral formation pathways
Temperature variations lead to different mineral products under specific redox conditions
Resumen
Rare earth element (REE) carbonate and phosphate minerals form through multi-step crystallization and replacement processes controlled by REE chemistry, temperature, and redox conditions.
