The Evolution of the REE-Bearing Özvatan Nepheline Syenite-Carbonatite Complex, Central Turkey: Mineralogical, Geochemical, and Stable Isotopic Approaches

The Evolution of the REE-Bearing Özvatan Nepheline Syenite-Carbonatite Complex, Central Turkey: Mineralogical, Geochemical, and Stable Isotopic Approaches

Carbonatite complexes and associated fenite zones are famous for their high-grade rare metal ores. The carbonatite–fenite complexes generally contain high concentrations of light rare earth elements (LREE), thorium (Th), and uranium (U). While most carbonatites are closely related to continental rif...
