An ion-adsorbing type rare earth deposit is normally the weathered crust of a magmatic-type primary deposit. The rare earth elements are adsorbed on the surface of clays in the form of ions. The rare earth elements are not soluble or hydrolyzed in water but follow ion-exchange laws (Lu et al. 1997; Tian and Yin 1996; Li 1993; Chi 1989).
