REE and Trace Elements U and Th from the Manganese-Bearing Rock Series in the Middle Triassic Falang Formation in the oft-com:office:smarttags" />Southeastern Yunnan Province
The REE compositions are explored by using ICP-MS method for samples from the manganese-bearing rock series in the Middle Triassic Falang Formation in the southeastern Yunnan Province. The manganese ore samples are characterized by slight Ce and Eu anomalies. The manganese-bearing limestone samples are characterized by highly negative Ce anomalies and slightly negative Eu anomalies. It is concluded that the manganese-bearing rock series in the Middle Triassic Falang Formation in the southeastern Yunnan Province are commonly subjected to hydrothermal processes and resulted from polyphase processes.
