Metasomatism and REE mineralization of the Zilair Formation sedimentary rocks in the Khudolaz complex gabbro massif exocontact zone (Chebarkul area, Southern Urals) by Evgeny I. Mikheev, Ildar R. Rakhimov, Elena O. Shaparenko, Elena I. Soroka

“…According to microthermometry of vapor-liquid fluid inclusions in calcite, the formation of REE-bearing minerals occurred at temperatures not lower than 150 °С. The sources of rare earth elements could be both the Zilair Formation sedimentary rocks and gabbro, as evidenced by the increase in REE concentrations and isotopic composition of oxygen and carbon in silicate-carbonate metasomatites (δ18OSMOW =13.80…15.98 ‰, δ13С = –5.64…–2.18). …”
