Chemistry of columbite-tantalite minerals in rare metal granitoids

Compositionally, columbite-tantalite of the Li-albite granites is constrained between MnNb 2 O 6 and MnTa 2 O 6 (the Ta/(Nb+Ta) atom. ratio ranges between 0.10 and 0.80). This low to high ratio and the association of columbite-tantalite with topaz, fluorite and lithian micas (in the series zinnwaldite-white mica) indicate a higher solubility ...
