Rare Earth Deposits of North America

Rare earth elements (REE) have been mined in North America since 1885, when placer monazite was produced in the southeast USA. Since the 1960s, however, most North American REE have come from a carbonatite deposit at Mountain Pass, California, and most of the world’s REE came from this source between 1965 and 1995. After 1998, Mountain Pass REE sales declined substantially due to competition from China and to environmental constraints. REE are presently not mined at Mountain Pass, and shipments were made from stockpiles in recent years. Chevron Mining, however, restarted extraction of selected REE at Mountain Pass in 2007. In 1987, Mountain Pass reserves were calculated at 29 Mt of ore with 8.9% rare earth oxide based on a 5% cut‐off grade. Current reserves are in excess of 20 Mt at similar grade. The ore mineral is bastnasite, and the ore has high light REE/heavy REE (LREE/HREE). The carbonatite is a moderately dipping, tabular 1.4‐Ga intrusive body associated with ultrapotassic alkaline plutons of similar age. The chemistry and ultrapotassic alkaline association of the Mountain Pass deposit suggest a different source than that of most other carbonatites. Elsewhere in the western USA, carbonatites have been proposed as possible REE sources. Large but low‐grade LREE resources are in carbonatite in Colorado and Wyoming. Carbonatite complexes in Canada contain only minor REE resources. Other types of hard‐rock REE deposits in the USA include small iron‐REE deposits in Missouri and New York, and vein deposits in Idaho. Phosphorite and fluorite deposits in the USA also contain minor REE resources. The most recently discovered REE deposit in North America is the Hoidas Lake vein deposit, Saskatchewan, a small but incompletely evaluated resource. Neogene North American placer monazite resources, both marine and continental, are small or in environmentally sensitive areas, and thus unlikely to be mined. Paleoplacer deposits also contain minor resources. Possible future uranium mining of Precambrian conglomerates in the Elliott Lake–Blind River district, Canada, could yield by‐product HREE and Y. REE deposits occur in peralkaline syenitic and granitic rocks in several places in North America. These deposits are typically enriched in HREE, Y, and Zr. Some also have associated Be, Nb, and Ta. The largest such deposits are at Thor Lake and Strange Lake in Canada. A eudialyte syenite deposit at Pajarito Mountain in New Mexico is also probably large, but of lower grade. Similar deposits occur at Kipawa Lake and Lackner Lake in Canada. Future uses of some REE commodities are expected to increase, and growth is likely for REE in new technologies. World reserves, however, are probably sufficient to meet international demand for most REE commodities well into the 21st century. Recent experience shows that Chinese producers are capable of large amounts of REE production, keeping prices low. Most refined REE prices are now at approximately 50% of the 1980s price levels, but there has been recent upward price movement for some REE compounds following Chinese restriction of exports. Because of its grade, size, and relatively simple metallurgy, the Mountain Pass deposit remains North America’s best source of LREE. The future of REE production at Mountain Pass is mostly dependent on REE price levels and on domestic REE marketing potential. The development of new REE deposits in North America is unlikely in the near future. Undeveloped deposits with the most potential are probably large, low‐grade deposits in peralkaline igneous rocks. Competition with established Chinese HREE and Y sources and a developing Australian deposit will be a factor.     

综合物探在金属矿采空区中的应用—以焦家金矿望儿山采空区为例

矿山开采范围和深度的不断加大形成了越来越多的金属矿采空区。采空区塌陷等地质灾害给矿山安全开采和居民生活带来了极大的不便,因此对金属矿采空区的准确定位显得尤为重要。本文以山东焦家金矿望儿山采空区为例,开展了以高密度电阻率法、地震映像和探地雷达探测为主的综合探测试验,通过综合探测发现异常16处,结合地质资料和钻孔验证,证实了其中12处异常为采空区(准确率达到75%),并结合电-震综合异常特征建立了采空区3D空间形态。试验结果表明,以电-震为主的综合地球物理勘探技术可以有效的定位采空区位置及空间分布,为焦家金矿及其它金属矿区采空区探测提供了借鉴。     

新疆包古图金矿四矿区L7号脉中的特殊矿物组合及其成矿意义

包古图金矿四矿区L7号脉由浅部的自然砷-石英脉型矿石和深部的辉锑矿-石英脉型矿石组成。矿脉中含罕见的As、Sb矿物,如paakkonenite（Sb₂AsS₂）、自然砷、自然锑、方锑金矿、硫锑金银矿（Au₃Ag₄Sb₁₀S₁₂）等。热液过程划分为5个阶段：黄铁矿-毒砂阶段（Ⅰ）,围岩中形成大量的毒砂和黄铁矿并伴随较强硅化;粗粒石英阶段（Ⅱ）,形成沿围岩壁或围岩角砾的梳状石英;Au-As-Sb矿化阶段（Ⅲ）,形成辉锑矿-自然锑-自然砷-paakkonenite-银金矿-自然金-方锑金矿-硫锑金银矿-辉锑银矿-银锌黝铜矿-斜方砷铁矿-硫铜锑矿-石英;晚期Sb矿化阶段（Ⅳ）,形成与粒状方解石共生的辉锑矿、自然锑和paakkonenite;方解石阶段（Ⅴ）,形成穿切矿体和围岩的方解石（-石英）细脉。辉锑矿和斜方砷铁矿交代毒砂,自然金、方锑金矿、paakkonenite和自然砷交代辉锑矿。辉锑矿的结晶主要受温度和还原S含量的控制,自然砷、自然锑的结晶主要受氧逸度和温度控制。As、Sb分别以自然砷、辉锑矿和自然锑形式存在,同时消耗大量H₂S,流体进入张性空间后也释放H₂S,导致硫逸度急剧降低,含Au络合物失稳而成矿。

Geochemical and electron paramagnetic characteristics of quartz from a multi-stage vein environment, Cowarra gold deposit, New South Wales

The characterisation of quartz using trace element geochemistry and electron paramagnetic resonance measurements has been tested for different generations of quartz veining in the multi-stage hydrothermal vein system at Cowarra. Quartz closely associated with gold mineralisation can be distinguished from earlier and later quartz generations in the mineralised environment, and both types can be distinguished from regional, barren quartz veins. These separate stages of quartz veins are also recognised from their fluid inclusion characteristics. Geochemical differences in the quartz partly reflect the presence of minor mineral inclusions, particularly sulfides and arsenopyrite.The study highlights the importance of understanding the paragenetic sequence of quartz vein development in a mineralised environment and the need for careful, thorough sampling before attempting geochemical and EPR characterisation of quartz as an exploration technique.
