Abstract

Based on studying monazite and xenotime from various ore deposits, a method for identifying these minerals under an IR microscope has been developed. The spectral characteristics of monazite and xenotime have been revealed, determined by their content of isomorphic and phase impurities. The data obtained can be used for technological mapping of deposits of rare earth elements, as well as for the forecasting and prospecting purposes.
