Investigating the use of an ionic liquid for rare earth mineral flotation

1. Introduction. The rare earth elements (REE) have been applied in many high-end technology applications, including magnets, catalysts, hydrogen storage, electronic devices, ceramics, and polishing powders. 1 While more than 250 rare earth minerals (REM) have been discovered, 2 the majority of the world's REE (particularly LREE) are sourced from the …

Flotation behavior and electronic simulations of rare earth minerals …

Common rare earth (RE) minerals, such as bastnäsite and monazite, may be formed in deposits associated with carbonate gangue, such as calcite and dolomite. Sodium oleate is a widely used collector for the flotation of both RE and gangue minerals, which might, therefore, be an inefficient process due to the lack of selectivity of this collector. Since these …
