Multidisciplinary Investigations of REE Mineralization at Mountain Pass and in the Southeast Mojave Desert, California
The rare earth elements (REEs) are a group of metals with unique physical and chemical properties that are critical to a variety of technological applications. For example, neodymium (Nd) is a REE used to manufacture high strength, lightweight magnets that power electric motors at all scales, from cell phones to airplanes. Reliance on REE imports puts the U.S. at high risk for supply disruption...
