Rare Earth Elements (REE) Analysis – 4-Acid Digestion & ICP-OES & ICP-OES
 
Specialized REE Analysis Package
 
 
 
Purpose of this package
 
Used when you want to obtain an overview of the Rare Earth Elements (REE) content in a material, as a basis for assessing the technical potential and preliminary feasibility of processing or exploration.
 
 
 
This analysis is intended for the practical assessment of REE content, not merely for academic research.
 
 
 
Metals Analyzed
 
 
 
Rare Earth Elements (REE)
Sc, Y, La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, Lu
 
(The list of elements may be adjusted depending on the material’s characteristics)
 
 
 
How the analysis is carried out
 
 
 
 
4-Acid Dissolution to dissolve REE elements from the sample
