Primary REE Source - Carbonatite
• A Carbonatite is an
  igneous rock
  comprising at least
  50% carbonate
  minerals.
• Usually occur as
  small plugs within
  concentrically
  zoned alkalic
  intrusive
  complexes.
• Greatly enriched in niobium,
  rare-earth elements, barium,
  strontium, phosphorus, and
  fluorine                       Idealized carbonatite pipe (modified from
8                                Jébrack and Marcoux, 2008)
Carbonatite REE Mine Example
• Production at the Niobec mine
  began in 1976.
• Niobec mine has an excellent
  history of reserve renewal over
  30 years of operation.
• 29.5 million tonnes grading
  0.68% Nb2O5 Produced
• Currently producing
  approximately 7-8% of world
  consumption.
• 23.5 million tonnes grading
  0.59% Nb2O5 current
