The parisite–(Ce) enigma: challenges in the identification of fluorcarbonate minerals [PDF]
AbstractA multi-methodological study was conducted in order to provide further insight into the structural and compositional complexity of rare earth element (REE) fluorcarbonates, with particular attention to their correct assignment to a mineral species.

Multivariate Statistical Analysis on a SEM/EDS Phase Map of Rare Earth Minerals. [PDF]
The scanning electron microscope/X‐ray energy dispersive spectrometer (SEM/EDS) system is widely applied to rare earth minerals (REMs) to qualitatively describe their mineralogy and quantitatively determine their composition. The performance of multivariate statistical analysis on the EDS raw dataset can enhance the efficiency and the accuracy of phase

Abstract Ancient magnetization(s), often recorded by hematite (Fe2O3), provide key paleomagnetic constraints on plate interactions through time. Primary remanent magnetizations may be modified or overprinted by secondary processes that complicate interpretations of paleomagnetic data. Hematite (U‐Th)/He (hematite He) dating has the potential to resolve

Abstract Structures associated with Ediacaran‐Ordovician alkaline magmatism and the timing of rare earth element (REE) mineralization in the Wet Mountains, CO, were analyzed using field, geophysical, and U‐Th‐Pb isotope methods to interpret their tectonic setting in the context of previously proposed rift models. The Wet Mountains are known for thorium

Probing luminescence of rare earth ions in natural pink fluorites using Raman microscopes
Raman microscopy allows to observe high‐resolution emission bands of rare earth impurities in natural fluorites and by extension also in other minerals. This is demonstrated in this work for spectra of various pink fluorites obtained with Raman microscopes. Abstract It is well‐known that many natural fluorite crystals contain rare earth ions.

Global earth mineral inventory: A data legacy
The ‘Global Earth Mineral Inventory’ (GEMI) can be considered as a network with every node and edge representing some feature of the datasets. Exploring combinations of the network gives the researcher a particular view of the data required for the task at hand.
