  2. Monazite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monazite

    Very low concentrations of the heaviest lanthanides in monazite justified the term "rare" earth for these elements, with prices to match. Thorium content of monazite is variable and sometimes can be up to 20–30%. Monazite from certain carbonatites or from Bolivian tin ore veins is essentially thorium-free. However, commercial monazite sands ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure-temperature-time_path

    In the study of metamorphic petrology, uranium–thorium–lead dating of monazite (monazite geochronology) is an effective method to determine the P-T history. [ 29 ] [ 30 ] Monazite is a phosphate mineral containing light rare-earth-elements (LREE) that occurs in a wide range of rock types. [ 31 ]

  4. Monazite- (Sm) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monazite-(Sm)

    Monazite-(Sm) is an exceedingly rare representative of the monazite group, with samarium being the dominant rare earth element in its structure. It is the samarium analogue of monazite-(Ce), monazite-(La), and monazite-(Nd). It is only the second known mineral with samarium being the mineral-forming element, after florencite-(Sm). [3]

  5. Monazite- (Ce) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monazite-(Ce)

    Monazite-(Ce) (CePO4) is the most common representative of the monazite group. It is the cerium-dominant analogue of monazite-(La), monazite-(Nd), and monazite-(Sm ...

  6. Monazite- (Nd) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monazite-(Nd)

    This variety of monazite is typically colored bright rose-red. It is the neodymium analogue of monazite-(Ce) , monazite-(La) , and monazite-(Sm) . [ 4 ] The group contains simple rare earth phosphate minerals with the general formula of A T O 4 , where A = Ce, La, Nd, or Sm (or, rarely, Bi), and B = P or, rarely, As.

  7. Monazite- (La) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monazite-(La)

    Monazite-(La) is a relatively rare representative of the monazite group, with lanthanum being the dominant rare earth element in its structure. As such, it is the lanthanum analogue of monazite-(Ce) , monazite-(Nd) , and monazite-(Sm) .

  8. Dermis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dermis

    The dermis is composed of three major types of cells: [3] fibroblasts, macrophages, and mast cells.. Apart from these cells, the dermis is also composed of matrix components such as collagen (which provides strength), elastin (which provides elasticity), and extrafibrillar matrix, an extracellular gel-like substance primarily composed of glycosaminoglycans (most notably hyaluronan ...

  9. Hypodermic needle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypodermic_needle

    It is one of a category of medical tools which enter the skin, called sharps. [1] It is commonly used with a syringe , a hand-operated device with a plunger, to inject substances into the body (e.g., saline solution , solutions containing various drugs or liquid medicines) or extract fluids from the body (e.g., blood).
