Crystallisation sequence of a REE-rich carbonate melt: an experimental approach

Crystallisation sequence of a REE-rich carbonate melt: an experimental approach

Carbonatites host Earth’s main REE deposits, with bastnaesite (LREE)CO$_3$F being the main economic REE-bearing mineral. However, bastnaesite mineralisation processes are debated between hydrothermal or magmatic origin. This study aims to assess if bastnaesite can be magmatic, and to characterise th...
