ABSTRAK Daerah Bangka Belitung termasuk dalam sabuk timah yang merupakan intrusi pluton granit. Selain merupakan pembawa logam timah, diketahui bahwa pada batuan granit juga merupakan batuan beku pembawa mineral-mineral Rare Earth Elements (REE) seperti monasit, dan xenotim. REE memiliki nilai ekonomis yang tinggi dan peran penting dalam perkembangan teknologi baru. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui kelimpahan kadar, mineralogi dan ukuran butir Mineral Ikutan Timah (MIT) pada endapan primer, sekunder, dan tailing di Bangka Selatan dan Belitung. Pengambilan sampel dilakukan secara acak (grab sampling) untuk sampel endapan aluvial, koluvial, tailing, serta konsentrat dan chip sampling untuk sampel endapan primer berbentuk batuan. Sampel dikeringkan menggunakan oven, kemudian direduksi menggunakan splitter hingga memperoleh volume sampel yang sesuai. Pengayakan sampel dilakukan menggunakan 5 (lima) fraksi yaitu #+48, #+65, #+100, #+150, dan #-150 untuk memperoleh keseragaman butir sampel. Metoda analisis yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah analisa radioaktif menggunakan scintillometer, mineral butir menggunakan metode grain counting, analisa mineragrafi dengan sayatan poles, serta analisa X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) berupa sampel bubuk. Kata kunci : Mineral Ikutan Timah,  Rare Earth Elements, Grain Counting, Monasit, Xenotim.   ABSTRACT The Bangka Belitung area is included in a tin belt which is an intrusion of granite pluton.

ABSTRACTRare-earth elements including Y, Er and Sc were added to AlTi3 for stabilizing the Ll2 ordered crystal structure, as predicted by the AB3 structure map. The crystal structure and phase composition in the AlTi3 alloys were studied by electron microprobe analysis, X-ray diffraction and TEM. The solubility limit of the rare-earth elements were determined and correlated with the atomic size factor. The results obtained so far indicate that rare-earth additions are unable to change the crystal structure of AlTi3 from DO19 to Ll2. The inability to stabilize the Ll2 structure demonstrates the need to characterize the structure map domains with a further period-dependent parameter.

AbstractA recently discovered the rare-earth-rich site in Capacsaya, located at 123 km northwest of Cusco, at the south of Peru, contains significant quantities of light and heavy rare-earth elements such as neodymium, lanthanum, cerium, europium, and yttrium. This work reports the identification of rare-earth elements and their associated minerals using scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analyses. Five (5) samples extracted from different locations at the Capacsaya site were characterized and identified K-feldspar as the mineral associated with the rare-earth elements in a representative sample with a high concentration of lanthanum and cerium. The results showed rare-earth elements contained within the mineral phase monazite, being cerium the dominant element in the phase (La, Ce, Nd)PO$$_4$$ 4 . Finally, through the electrostatic separation process we demonstrate that it was possible to achieve an efficient separation of the K-feldspar phase in the particle size range 75–150 $$\upmu$$ μ m.

SummarySandstones from Mull and Morvern, most of which are from the Greensand formation, have been shown by X-ray diffraction to contain minerals of the plumbogummite group in very small amounts in the < 1·4µm fraction. The minerals were concentrated by HF digestion of the clay minerals. X-ray spectrographic traces show concentrations of Sr, La, Ce, Yt, and Ba, and a semiquantitative spectrochemical analysis also shows a concentration of Ca and Pb and the presence of numerous rare-earth elements. Individual minerals, which have a complex composition and can not be assigned to any one named species, are disseminated throughout the rocks as particles with an estimated size of between 0·1 and 0·25µm.

AbstractThe crystal structures have been determined for britholite-(Ce) and lessingite-(Ce) from the type localities and a third sample (‘min X’) showing chemical similarities to both britholite-(Ce) and lessingite-(Ce). This sample is from the Ilímaussaq intrusion in Greenland. They are rare earth elements (REE) rich apatite analogues. Based on the X-ray diffraction results they were assigned to the hexagonal system with cell dimensions slightly larger than those of apatite. The three structures have been refined in the space group

The Lovozero peralkaline massif (Kola Peninsula, Russia) has several deposits of Zr, Nb, Ta and rare earth elements (REE) associated with eudialyte-group minerals (EGM). Eudialyte from the Alluaiv Mt. often forms zonal grains with central parts enriched in Zr (more than 3 apfu) and marginal zones enriched in REEs. The detailed study of the chemical composition (294 microprobe analyses) of EGMs from the drill cores of the Mt. Alluaiv-Mt. Kedykvyrpakhk deposits reveal more than 70% Zr-enriched samples. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD) was performed separately for the Zr-rich (4.17 Zr apfu) core and the REE-rich (0.54 REE apfu) marginal zone. It was found that extra Zr incorporates into the octahedral M1A site, where it replaces Ca, leading to the symmetry lowering from R3¯m to R32. We demonstrated that the incorporation of extra Zr into EGMs makes the calculation of the eudialyte formula on the basis of Si + Al + Zr + Ti + Hf + Nb + Ta + W = 29 apfu inappropriate.

Fe2O3 nanoparticle was prepared by a hydrothermal method, and the influence of rare earth elements (Y3+, Nd3+ and La3+) on the electrochemical performance was studied. The crystal structure and microstructure of the synthesized lithium zinc ferrite were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD),scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results show that the powder is well crystallized and the particles are mostly irregular.The electrochemical property was characterized via cyclic voltammetry (CV) and constant current charge-discharge method. The capacitance of the Fe2O3 nanoparticle is 258.3 F/g, 342.7 F/g after doping Y3+ ,337.1 F/g after doping Nd3+and 331.2 F/g after doping La3 +. The results show that the rare earth elements (Y3+, Nd3+ and La3+) after the specific capacitance has increased, more suitable for super capacitor materials.

The objective of this research is to determine the rare earth elements (REEs) from themonazite minerals content of several tin tailing sands (TTS)of ex-tin mining area in Kuala Raya Singkep Island, Indonesia. We used the energy dispersive analysis of  X-ray (EDAX)-scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and x-ray diffraction (XRD) to characterize the contents of the samples. The coupled analytical of XRD with SEM/EDX approach enabled to be used for mineralogical identification on the heavy mineral as a rapid determination approach. The analysis of the samples indicates only the presence of REEs including lanthanum (La), cerium (Ce), and thorium (Th) are consistent with the identification of monazite and minerals in the tailing sand. The results show that the average REEs consist of La at 0.2 .%, Ce at 7.8 %, and Th at 2.0% respectively. It is concluded that monazite minerals in TTS has an economic potential to be developed. These monazite minerals can be used as material for semiconductor devices.

The aim of the studies described in this article was to present the effect of rare earth elements on aluminium alloys produced by an unconventional casting technique. The article gives characteristics of the thin strip of Al-Si-RE alloy produced by Rapid Solidification (RS). The effect of rare earth elements on structure refinement, i.e. on the size of near-eutectic crystallites in an aluminium-silicon alloy, was discussed. To determine the size of crystallites, the Scherrer X-ray diffraction method was used. The results presented capture relationships showing the effect of variable casting parameters and chemical composition on microstructure of the examined alloys. Rapid Solidification applied to Al-Si alloys with the addition of mischmetal (Ce, La, Ne, Pr) refines their structure.
