The Naedeokri and Nonggeori granites are early Proterozoic granites of the Taebaek-Sangdong area in the northeastern part of the Yeongnam Massif. In this paper, rare earth elements (REEs) concentrations of the minerals in Naedeokri and Nonggeori granites and Rb-Sr mineral isochron age are reported. Except zircon, the constituent minerals such as mica, feldspar, quartz, and tourmaline show LREE-enriched and HREE-depleted REE patterns with relatively large Eu negative anomaly. However, zircon has geochemical characteristic of LREE- and HREE-enriched REE pattern with large Eu positive anomaly. This pattern suggests that zircon should be hydrothermal zircon due to deuteric hydrothermal alteration. In addition, the Rb-Sr mineral age of Naedeokri granite indicates an age value of 1.814±142(2σ) Ma. The Rb-Sr whole rock age including pervious data of Naedeokri and Nogggeori granite indicates an age value of 1,707±74(2σ) Ma. This value is younger than the Sm-Nd isochron of 1.87 Ga, indicating that the Rb-Sr isotope system may be re-homogenized by hydrothermal alteration during the transition from a magmatic to a hydrothermal system.

In order to investigate electronic and magnetic properties of permanent magnets, we have performed self-consistent electronic structure calculations on compounds of rare-earth and transition metals, such as $SmCo_{5},\;NdB_{6},\;NdFe_{5},\;NdFe_{4}B$. Employing the local density LMTO(linearized muffin tin orbital) band method, we have obtained the ground state parameters, such as band structures, density of states, Stoner parameters, and magnetic moments. We have also investigated interactions between d,f-electrons of Nd, Sm rare-earths and d-electrons of Fe, Co transition metals, and the s,p electrons of boron and explored effects of such interactions on the bonding mechanism and the electronic and magnetic structures in these rare-earth compounds.

Permanent magnet is one of the most important parts in modern industry and the rare earth elements play an essential role for operation of permanent magnet. As is well known, the rare earth elements are mostly produced in China and the world is now facing serious problems owing to supply and demand imbalances. Many attempts have been performed to replace these rare-earth based permanent magnets by rare-earth free magnets, but they have not been successful so far. Regarding this issue, we discuss about an exchange spring magnet as a potential rare earth free permanent magnet structure.

The separation of the rare earth elements with diethylene triamine N, N, N', N', N"-pentaacetic acid (DTPA) as eluent was carried out at different pH and concentrations by using anion exchange resin column. The rare earth elements were absorbed on the upper of the resin column and the best condition of the separation behavior was 0.025M of DTPA at pH 8.35. The elution order of the rare earths was in the order of the atomic number of the rare earth elements except samarium. The resolution of adjacent rare earth elements that have been separated with 0.025M-DTPA as eluent, was from 3.03 to 1.25 at pH 8.35. Resolution of Ce-Pr was maximum value in 3.03 and Eu-Gd was minimum in 1.25 at condition mentioned above, respectively. The resolution of rare earth elements separated with 0.025M DTPA eluent was very good at pH range of 8.0~8.6.

이성분 희토류 원소로 치환된 4종류의 합성불화인회석(synthetic fluorapatite) (Ap49: La+Gd, Ap50:Ce+Dy, Ap51: Pr+Er, Ap54: Eu+Lu; $Ca{10-x-2y}$ $Na_{y}$ $REE_{x+y}$($P_{1-x}$ //$Si_{x}$ $_{4}$)$_{6}$ $F_{2}$, x=0.13~0.12, y=0.26~0.42)을 대상으로 X-선 회절분석을 통해 얻어진 자료를 이용하여 리트벨트 구조분석을 실시하고 치환된 희토류원소의 거동을 단결정법으로 구해진 결과와 비교.분석하였다. 리트벨트 구조분석결과 합성불화인회석은 공간군 $P6_3$/m, 단위포는 평균하여 a=9.3906(1) $\AA$, c=6.8924(1) $\AA$, V=527.36 $\AA^3$의 값을 갖는다. 구조의 정밀도를 나타내는 R 지수를 보면 $R_{B}$ / 값은 17.29~18.80이고 S(GofF)값은 1.44~1.68로 계산되었다. 불화인회석은 9개의 산소를 배위하는 Ca1자리와 6개의 산소와 하나의 불소가 배위하는 Ca2자리가 있으며 Ca1-O의 평균거리는 2.563 $\AA$이고 Ca2-O의 평균거리는 $2.460 \AA$으로 Ca1자리가 Ca2자리보다 다소 크다. 구조자리 치환식에서는 $Ca^{2+}$ / 자리를 치환하는 $REE^{3+ }$ 로 인하여 전하균형을 맞춰주기 위해서 인과규소가 함께 참여하였다. ($REE^{3}$+Si$^{ 4+}$ $2Ca^{2+}$ : Ca1) 계산된 희토류원소의 자리점유율(REE-Ca2/REE-Cal)은 원자번호가 증가함에 따라 일정하게 감소하는 경향을 보여주며 이는 희토류원소의 거동이 LREE는 크기가 상대적으로 작은 Ca2 자리에 우선 치환되고 HREE는 크기가 큰 Ca1자리에 우선 치환되는 경향을 지시한다.

공주군 유구면 일대의 화강암질 편마암의 풍화작용에 따른 원소의 거동과 pH와 이차광물과의 관계를 XRF, ICP-AES, ICP-MS를 이용한 원소분석결과를 통하여 검토하였다. 이 지역의 암석은 pH6 내외의 산성환경, 침철석, 아나타제와 같은 다양한 이차광물을 생성하면서 심각한 화학조성의 변화를 초래했다. 주원소의 화학조성을 이용한 풍화지수는 토양층에서 79~88로 모암 중의 사장석이 용해되고 흑운모가 변질되어 캐올리광물의 생성이 활발한 방향으로 풍화작용이 진행되었다. 지표층으로 가면서 Al에 대한 주 원소의 거동은 Si, Ca, Na, K, P가 감소하고 Fe, Ti, Mn이 증가하는 경향을 보이며 pH가 낮은 풍화단면에서 주 원소의 변화량이 더 크다. 이 풍화대에서 Mg은 거의 일정하다. Li, As 모든 전이원소는 pH가 감소함에 따라 증가하며 특히 이들 원소는 Fe의 함량과 비례해서 증가해 침철석과 공침하였거나 표면에 흡착되어 있는 것으로 보인다. Ga은 Fe와 비례하기는 하지만 변화량은 전 풍화단면에서 일정하다. Zr, Mo, Sn, Cd은 pH에 변화에 상관없이 일정한 반면에 Rb, Sr, Ba, Y, Pb, Th, U 등은 감소하는 경향을 보인다. 특히 Rb 과 Sr은 Ca에 비례해서 감소한다. 희토류원소는 전 풍화단면에서 감소하는 경향을 보이는데 $Al_2$$O_3$에 대한 상대적인 변화량을 보면 경희토류원소는 사프롤라이트(saprolite)하부와 상부에서 부화되어 있고 중부 사프롤라이트와 토양층에서 감소하는 반면에 중희토류원소는 사프롤라이트 하부와 상부에서 감소하고 중부사프롤라이트 및 토양층에서 부화되는 경향을 보인다. 전반적으로 희토류원소의 원자번호가 클수록 손실율이 커진다. 이 풍화단면에서 원소의 거동은 각 풍화층의 pH와 생성된 이차광물의 조성에 지배를 받았다.

In order to clarify the effect of standard rock material in the chemical analysis of rare earth element abundance with ICP-MS, we measured rare earth element abundance of KIGAM granite standard rock material (KG-1), USGS granite standard rock material (G-2), GSJ granite standard rock materials (JG-1a and JG-2). In REE analysis, we used conventional calibration standard solutions, KG-1, JG-1a, JG-2 and G-2 as standard material, respectively. Chondrite-normalized LREE patterns of low granite standard material correspond well each other in the recommended value and the estimated value regardless of a kind of standard rock. However, the HREE patterns of the estimated value based on G-2 or JG-2 and the recommended value are different from each other. Such difference may be due to the wrong recommended value or a specific geochemical properly of the standard rock material itself, The chondrite-normalized REE patterns of four standard rock materials estimated on the basis of KG-1 or JG-1 a show little deviation compared to the those of the recommended values. This suggests that KG-1 and JG-1a may be a optimum standard material for granitoids.

An experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of dietary supplementation of rare earth, individually and in combination with colloidal silver on growth performance, nutrient digestibility, carcass characteristics and immune response in broiler chicks. A total of 3,872 day-old chicks were randomly allotted to four dietary treatments in a randomized complete block design. There were four pens per treatment and 242 chicks per pen. The dietary treatments were T1) CON (control diet), T2) colloidal silver (control diet+20 ppb colloidal silver), T3) rare earth elements (control diet+500 ppm rare earth), T4) colloidal silver +rare earth elements (control diet+20 ppb colloidal silver+500 ppm rare earth). There were no significant differences in feed intake and feed conversion ratio (FCR) among dietary treatments during the whole experimental period (0 to 5 weeks). Body weight gain was greatest in birds fed T3 and T4 diets (p<0.01). Apparent digestibility of dry matter, crude protein, ether extract and calcium were greatest in birds fed T4 diet (p<0.05), while apparent digestibility of phosphorus was lowest in birds fed T3 diet (p<0.05). There was no significant difference in bone strength, carcass characteristics and immune response among dietary treatments. Dry matter content of bone was greatest in birds fed T4 diet (p<0.05), and phosphorus content of bone was greater in birds fed T3 diet than in birds fed T2 and T4 diets (p<0.05). Thus, the results of this study suggest that rare earth elements supplementation, individually and in combination with colloidal silver could improve performance of broilers.

A geochemical technique based on rare earth element geochemistry was used to clarity the source of the Asian dust (Yellow sand) in the Daejeon area. The Asian dusts were collected 4 times during 31th March- 2nd April and 25th May-27th May 2007. The Yellow sand shows PAAS (Post Archean Australian Shale)-normalized REE pattern of the flattened LREE and slightly depleted LREE without Eu anomaly, whereas the Daejeon soil has slightly enriched LREE and depleted HREE with negative Eu anomaly. Our results show that REE patterns of the Asian dust are LREE-flattened similar to those of the sediment from the south-eastern part of Ordos desert. This suggests that Asian dust in the Daejeon area might be derived from the south-eastern part of Ordos desert.
