Scientific paper

Fourteen monazites from several well-studied pegmatites and pegmatite districts in the western states have been analysed by X-ray fluorescence spectrometry for the cerium subgroup of rare-earth elements, as well as yttrium and thorium. The results have been correlated with the paragenesis, mineralogy and geology of the occurrences. They show several distinct, and in some cases unique, rare-earth element distributions which are characteristic not only of individual pegmatites but also of entire pegmatite districts.
