RM3379   Huanghoite-(Ce)

Orange veins of huanghoite-(Ce), very fine grained and associated with other rare earth carbonates such as sinchysite-(Ce) and Röntgenite-(Ce), along with aegirine of greenish tones. A hard to find rarity. Bayan Obo is the world's largest rare earth deposit (REE). Interestingly the fluorite content of the ores also makes it the largest fluorite deposit in the world. You have to think that the Bayan Obo deposit is 18 km long and 3 km wide, covering a total area of 48 km². The deposit is made up of three main open pit deposits.

Size: 3.3 x 2.5 x 2 cm.
