There are two series of rare earth metals, the lanthanides and the actinides.

Ion exchange was for many years the only practical way to separate the rare earths in large quantities.

Otherwise it looks much like the other rare earths.

They could not yet produce pure samples of all the rare earth elements, even in the form of their salts, and in some cases they were unable to distinguish between mixtures of two very similar (adjacent) rare earth elements from the nearby pure metals in the Periodic Table.

From employing its strong trade position to exploiting its near monopoly on the global production of vital resources like rare earth minerals, China has staked out a more domineering role in Asia.

Well, Rare Earth actually taught me an awful lot about meeting the public.

So, in 2000 we wrote Rare Earth. In 2003, we then asked,

And India s government has shown its political savvy by forging an agreement to provide Japan with rare earth minerals a vital component in many manufacturing processes after China chose to use its supplies of rare earths as a diplomatic stick.

Like other rare earths, this element is never found as a free element in nature but is found bound in monazite sand ores.

Also, the method of separating the rare earth elements by the method of ion exchange had not been invented yet in Moseley's time.

Well, the second part of that, soon after and I was talking to Paul Allen I saw him in the audience, and I handed him a copy of Rare Earth.

Rare earth elements change through time in small quantities (ppm, parts per million), so their proportion can be used for geochronology and dating fossils.

These are not rare occurrences.

So, in 2000 we wrote Rare Earth. In 2003, we then asked, let's not think about where Earths are in space, but how long has Earth been Earth?

These rocks have low concentrations of large ion lithophile elements (LILE), light rare earth elements (LREE), volatile elements and other highly incompatible elements.

It is third in the world in cotton production, eighth in gold extraction, tenth in the production of copper and is among the leading nations in deposits of rare metals and strategic raw materials.

'The metals were shiny and malleable.

The value of world production of industrial minerals far exceeds that of the metallic ones.

These minerals require less capital investment for their extraction and processing than the metallic minerals.
