• Rare earths supply chains: current status, constraints and opportunities (2014, background): “There are about 200 known minerals containing REEs (Kanazawa and Kamitani, 2006), however, known production of rare earths is primarily from six sources: Bastnaesite [(Ce,La)(CO3)F], Monazite [(Ce,La)PO4)], Xenotime (YPO4), Loparite [(Ce,Na,Ca)(Ti,Nb)O3], Apatite [(Ca,REE,Sr,Na,K)3Ca2(PO4)3(F,OH)],…”
• An overview of rare-earth recovery by ion-exchange leaching from ion-adsorption clays of various origins (2016, background): “Ion-adsorption type deposits are substantially lower grade than other types of lanthanide sources (Kanazawa and Kamitani, 2006), nominally requiring higher costs for REE extraction and recovery.”
