The Beneficiation Method of Rare Earth Minerals
1. Radiation Beneficiation Method. It mainly uses the difference in thorium content between rare earth minerals and gangue minerals in the ore, and uses a γ-ray radiation concentrator to separate rare earth minerals from gangue minerals. The radiation beneficiation method is mostly used for the pre-selection of rare earth ore.
