The extraction of rare earth oxides from fluorapatite rich phosphate concentrates often involves a weak acid leach of fluorapatite and a sulphuric acid bake of the leach residue followed by water leach and precipitation to obtain an intermediate product. The main aim of this study was to determine and rationalize the solubility of rare earth metal ions in synthetic solutions representing various process...
Phosphate rocks such as fluorapatite often contain significant amounts of rare earth minerals and considered as rare earth ores. They can be processed to produce phosphoric acid as well as rare earth metals. The mineralization, however, is commonly associated with other rare earth minerals such as monazite ((Ce,La,Th,Nd,Y)PO4), florencite ((La,Ce)Al3(PO4)2(OH)6), xenotime (YPO4) and cheralite ((Ca,Ce)(Th,Ce)(PO...
