Minerals Sands

Mineral sand deposits may also host rare earth elements such as lanthanum (La), cerium (Ce) and neodymium (Nd), as part of the chemical structure of monazite, and erbium (Er) and cerium, as part of the chemical structure of xenotime. However, rare earth elements are seldom present in commercially viable quantities in mineral sand deposits.
