Mar 13, 2019 Thats almost as much as the nearly 126,000 tons of rare-earth oxides produced worldwide each year. To test whether rare-earth elements could be obtained from PG, researchers doped synthetic phosphogypsum with six rare-earth elementsyttrium, cerium, neodymium, samarium, europium and ytterbium.
Sep 16, 2016 This work was carried out to analyze and compare Hazm El-Jalamid phosphate oresSaudi Arabia with other ores, for their uranium (U) and rare earth elements (REE) abundance and geochemical pattern. Fifteen representative phosphate ore samples were collected from three phosphate mines (Hazm El-Jalamid and Umm Wual) in Saudi Arabia
The mineral exploration of rare earth elements (REEs) and their entry into the soil via fertilizers has generated concern about environmental impacts and human health risks. We evaluated 60 samples of limestone, gypsum and phosphate fertilizers marketed in Brazil in order to characterize their contents, signature and solubility of REEs.

Abstract. The critical role of rare earth elements (REEs), particularly heavy REEs (HREEs), in high-tech industries has created a surge in demand that is quickly outstripping known global supply and has triggered a worldwide scramble to discover new sources. The chemical analysis of 23 sedimentary phosphate deposits (phosphorites) in the United States demonstrates that
