The first step to recover rare earths and remove thorium from monazite is to apply to the mineral an acid or alkali treatment. The acid treatment uses sulfuric acid (H 2 SO 4) to precipitate double sulfates and later recover rare earths from thorium by solvent extraction.

An ore is a natural combination of minerals from which metals can be extracted at a profit. Originally the term ore was applied only to metallic minerals, but the term now includes nonmetallic substances that have been deposited in rock after its formation. All metals come from ore deposits found in the Earth's crust.Web
