Responsible Sourcing of Critical Metals Elements
Light REE enriched carbonatites are generally low in Th and U, even if the ore mineral is monazite see above. As these are some of the highest grade ores, the amount of land disturbed is likely to bepared to other REE deposits. The energy requiredminution is variable. Carbonatites, for example, are not particularly tough rocks, but even weathered depositsminution
