Using AFM atomic force microscopy to study the transformation of monazite (Ce,U,Th)PO4 into pyromorphite Pb5(PO4)3Cl. This research will be carried out at Weber State University in Utah (USA) in collaboration with Dr. Marek Matyjasik. It is part of a larger PRELUDIUM BIS research project: “Low-temperature transformation of monazite (Ce,U,Th)PO4 into pyromorphite Pb5(PO4)3Cl – basic research… Read More »
Mineralogical Society of Poland awarded Bartek Puzio with prestigeous prize for THE BEST PhD THESIS IN MINERALOGY, PETROLOGY AND GEOCHEMISTRY OF 2024. Congratulations Bartek, the prize is well deserved. Your thesis “New method for prediction of thermodynamic functions for apatites” is outstanding. In this study, experimental data were collected on thermodynamic state functions (TFS) and molar… Read More »
A novel approach for beneficiation of REE from apatites and other mineral or waste sources by leaching with phosphoric acid followed by co-precipitation with lead phosphates has been developed and patented by LARG researchers. Watch this short movie presenting the technology. Please contact Jarek Majka or Maciej Manecki for details. Add Your Heading Text… Read More »
