Great to see this work with @manenbu and @FrancesWallCSM out in Science Advances.
Don't forget about the alkalis when considering #REE mineralisation in carbonatites!

Our @SosRare @NatureComms paper led by @Anoukborst shows that #rareearths are adsorbed onto clays in Malagasy laterite, similar to Chinese ion adsorption clays. Rare earths are vital for green tech (e.g. wind turbines & electric cars), so understanding global resources is vital.

4) Lastly, @s_broom_fendley (and co-authors incl. @MartinS_Rubble @mabadean @FrancesWallCSM) show that S can be incorporated into monazite as both sulphate and sulphide, opening up the possibility of using monazite as a 'tracer' for S mobility.

Kicking off the @CambSchMines #Business Breakfast about the circular #economy and the #mining industry. Talks from @tevicornwall @Minviro and @RichCraneGeo

Back home after a fun @HiTech_AlkCarb @SosRare #final #conference I've had a wonderful few years as part of this team and learned so much. Congrats to PI @FrancesWallCSM and our work package leader @kmgoodenough for such a successful project!

@rareearthsnews from Minviro discusses how life cycle assessment using the process that he has developed will help to tackle the newly recognised risk of reducing carbon footprint in mining. #crmfuture2019 @HiTech_AlkCarb @SosRare

Without Rare Earths there will no be any technology development in the future @hallgartenco introduced 5G technology as example @HiTech_AlkCarb @SosRare which is highly dependent on Erbium
Last talk of the day @tephrashard and @EdLoye on the need to connect with wider public and spread the message that we need metals and mines to grow the 'green economy'. #crmfuture2019
