Monazite ... is an important source of thorium, lanthanum, and cerium. It occurs usually in small isolated crystals. There are actually at least four different kinds of monazite, depending on relative elemental composition of the mineral: monazite-Ce (Ce, La, Pr, Nd, Th, Y)PO4, monazite-La (La, Ce, Nd, Pr)PO4, monazite-Nd (Nd, La, Ce, Pr)PO4, monazite-Pr (Pr, Nd, Ce, La)PO4. 3, record 1, English, - monazite
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Monazite includes rare earth elements (e.g. lanthanum, cerium, neodymium, etc.). Sometimes, monazite may include more than one rare earth element. Hence, the chemical formula may be written like this: (REE)PO4 where REE (rare-earth elements) may be replaced by one or more rare-earth elements: (La,Ce,Nd)PO4 4, record 1, English, - monazite
