Abstract
In carbonatite-related REE systems, the relative importance of magmatic and hydrothermal processes is debated. Based on our new data on high-precision zircon geochronology and in situ geochemistry from the Maoniuping REE deposit, we suggest that the giant REE mineralization may be generated from a super-enriched fluid within a short period of time. Rejuvenation of the system upon magma recharge may play an important role in REE enrichment in alkaline complexes.
