Includes an Outstanding Encyclopedic Overview of the Rare Earths
There is very much information packed into this volume, and my review is limited to the Castor and Hedrick chapter (pp. 769-792). These two authors survey: REE abundances (upper crust and chondrite), the major REE-bearing minerals, REE production by nations in different years, major REE-producing sites on Earth, geology of major REE deposits, HREE concentrations (including La/Gd comparisons ...

Fewer Spills in the Mines - The Best Ideas
Bob Shoemaker has probably designed, and visited, more processing plants than any millman around...and he also took the time to write down much of what he learned. As he notes in SME's new book The Circulating Load, "...I found that the managers and mill superintendents of ...plants were most hospitable in showing me their operations and freely answered any questions I asked. During these ...
