Handbook of Flotation Reagents: Chemistry, Theory and Practice
This chapter discusses properties of flotation of REO (rare earth oxide) minerals. The flotation properties of cerium group or bastnaesite and monazite are similar to the gangue minerals contained in the bastnaesite and monazite, such as calcite, barite, apatite, tourmaline, pyrochlore, and others, which cause difficulties in selective flotation.

Wet gravity separation and froth floatation techniques for rare earth …
The flotation process is considered one of the most important techniques to separate rare earth minerals from associate minerals and is commonly applied to the beneficiation of rare earth ores. It is worth mentioning that this separation method is used to separate minerals by exploiting the differences in their surface wettability [ 12, 24 ].
