A new study links rare earth deposits to fertilized mantle regions formed above ancient subduction zones.
The team found 67% of alkaline and carbonatite magma blobs and 72% of REE deposits above fertilized mantle regions.
Older deposits (over 540 million years) show even stronger associations with fertilized mantle regions.
The study used 2-billion-year plate tectonics models to identify where enriched mantle persisted.
Fluid and halogen release at subduction zones is proposed to fertilize the mantle and enable later ore formation.
The findings may help exploration by focusing on regions with ancient subduction histories.
There are multiple possible processes for ore formation, including mantle plumes and deglaciation effects.
The study highlights a time-lag between ancient subduction events and current ore deposits.
The research team includes Carl Spandler of Adelaide University and colleagues.
The work suggests refining models to identify more prospective regions for rare earths.
