Rare Earth Elements, October 2012, Vol. 8, No. 5
$20.00
Rare earth–based materials have practical applications in transportation, renew able energy, medicine, household items, visual arts, forensic science, and defense, and thus are essential to the progress of humankind. The rapid development and implementation of innovative and green technologies in the past decade have resulted in greatly increased demand for rare earth elements (REE).

Rare earth–based materials have practical applications in transportation, renew able energy, medicine, household items, visual arts, forensic science, and defense, and thus are essential to the progress of humankind. The rapid development and implementation of innovative and green technologies in the past decade have resulted in greatly increased demand for rare earth elements (REE). This demand has been amplified by the current situation in the supply market and by growing public concern about unlawful or unethical extraction of certain rare metal resources. The renewed interest in rare earth resources in the exploration and public sectors requires a much better understanding of these resources and their host rocks than currently available. This thematic issue presents a comprehensive overview of the key geological, geochemical, and mineralogical aspects of REE distribution in the crust and principal deposit types. It also discusses economic, political, and environmental issues related to REE mining.

Glasses And Melts: Linking Geochemistry And Materials Science, October 2006, Vol. 2, No. 5
$20.00Geological interest in studying melts stems from early recognition that melts play a fundamental role in determining the physical and chemical behaviour of magmas and magmatic processes. However, due to the inherent difficulties associated with working at high temperatures, much of the geological research over the last 30 years has used quenched melts or glasses as proxies for melts themselves.
