This accounts for the observed negative Ce anomalies displayed in the Buwambo kaolin samples. Although kaolinite accommodates the REE (Prudencio et al., 1989), and particularly the LREE (Nesbitt, 1979), a basic pH environment is also known to fractionate LREE-HREE, as the HREE are preferentially retained in solution, where they form …

Kaolin is an aluminosilicate soft white mineral named after the hill in China (Kao-ling) from which it was mined for centuries. In its natural state kaolin is a white, soft powder consisting principally of the mineral kaolinite, and varying amounts of other minerals such as muscovite, quartz, feldspar, and anatase.
