Rare-earth elements occur in nature in combination with phosphate ( monazite ), carbonate-fluoride ( bastnäsite ), and oxygen anions. In their oxides, most rare-earth elements only have a valence of 3 and form sesquioxides (cerium forms CeO2 ). Five different crystal structures are known, depending on the element and the temperature.

What are the risks associated with owning mineral rights for Rare Earth
3 · This can further disrupt the supply chain and impact the profitability of owning mineral rights for REEs. Furthermore, the rare earth elements industry is also vulnerable to global economic trends. Fluctuations in global demand for REEs, driven by the economic growth or downturn in different countries, can lead to volatile market prices.
· As monazite is chemically and thermally stable concentrate in the form of crystalline phosphate mineral, it is difficult to dissolve such material in acids or alkali. It requires a suitable condition to leach out the complex materials/metals present in the monazite using acidic or alkaline solutions. 3.1.1.
