Rare Earth Element Analysis Laboratories
Rare earth analysis quantifies lanthanide elements and related metals, requiring careful digestion and interference management to give reliable results.
When is it used?
- Magnet and alloy composition verification
- Recycling and recovery feedstock assessment
- Ore and concentrate evaluation
- Supply chain and substitution decisions
Sample considerations
- State the matrix — ore, magnet, alloy, solution or residue — since digestion differs greatly.
- Provide enough material for repeat analysis where values are contractual.

Frequently asked questions
- Why are rare earth analyses harder than routine metals?
- The elements interfere with each other spectrally and are difficult to dissolve completely, so method development and quality control matter more.
