Uranium, rare metals, and granulite-facies metamorphism

During granulite-facies metamorphism of metasedimentary rocks by the infiltration of carbonic fluids, the disappearance of hydrated minerals leads to the liberation of aqueous fluids. These fluids are strongly enriched in F and Cl, and a series of Large-Ion-Lithophile (LIL) elements and rare metals,...
