About this book

This volume presents a brief introduction to the Rare Earth Elements (REE) and their discovery, mineralogy, deposit types and applications. The book focusses on the aspects of both natural and industrial REE resources of India. It covers geological, structural, geochemical, petrological, mineralogical and genetic aspects of the natural deposits, and provides an account of the available industrial sources. The relative merits and potential of the several resources for future development and directions for inputs in REE exploration are discussed at the end of the monograph.

Reviews

“This publication is a useful and thoughtprovoking contribution on the REE resources from the Indian shield and merits a place in earth science departmental libraries as well as in the curriculum of post-graduate economic geology/ mineral resources courses being taught in Indian universities.” (N V Chalapathi Rao, Journal of Earth System Science, Vol. 129, 2020)
