A Molecular-Scale Approach to Rare-Earth Beneficiation: …
As a result, the energy difference between replacement of SA on bastnäsite and on calcite (ΔE rep, SA, bastnäsite-calcite = −36.9 kJ/mol) is smaller than for SHA (ΔE rep, SHA, bastnäsite-calcite = −57.2 kJ/mol), which does not penetrate into either surface. This translates directly to greater selectivity for bastnäsite over calcite by ...
