Rare earth elements

Summary. The rare earth elements (REE) are soft, silver-coloured metals that tarnish quickly in air and have high melting points. The REE range in abundance in the crust from about the same level as copper and lead down to the same levels as bismuth. There are many potential REE ore deposits in a wide variety of rocks.
