The distribution of rare metals in the LCT pegmatites from the Giraúl field, Angola

The Giraúl granitic pegmatite field, Angola, is composed of five pegmatite types; the most evolved belong to the beryl-columbite, beryl-columbite-phosphate and spodumene types. Pegmatites are concentrically zoned with increased grain size toward a quartz core; the most evolved pegmatites have well-d...
