Abstract:This paper investigates the monazite grains from the Dibrova rare-earth-thorium-uranium (U-Th-REE) mineral deposit within the Azov Megablock of Ukrainian Shield. U-Th-REE mineralization is associated with K-feldspar-quartz metasandstones and metagritstones (hereafter quartzites) and pegmatoids. The latter possibly represent products of ultrametamorphism/granitization of initially sedimentary clastic rocks during tectono-magmatic activation during the Paleoproterozoic. Ores are composed of quartz as a principal… Show more
