Abstract

This research is entitled Potential of Rare Earth Metals in Ketapang Regency, IUP PT. Pangsuma Natural Stone, with the aim of finding out the potential of Rare Earth Metals in Ketapang Regency. This research was carried out in collaboration with the Research Team and PT. Batu Alam Pangsuma where PT. Batu Alam Pangsuma has never tested the content of rare earth metals, so far PT. Batu Alam Pangsuma sells in the form of tin concentrate. Geologically, Rare Earth Element (REE) makes it possible to find it in tin mining locations, such as what happened in the Bangka Belitung tin mine, namely the minerals Zircon, Monazite and Xenotim, these minerals are the minerals that carry RRE. The research team calculated REE resources based on the level of confidence in the inferred geology. This was done because sample testing was carried out at 3 location points on in situ samples and samples that had been processed into tin concentrate. This research can be continued so as to obtain the potential of REE with measurable classification and create a mini project on the separation between REEs and tin concentrate. Based on the test results, there is a distribution of minerals in the form of metals with a percentage of Valuable Element Oxides (OUB) or referred to as concentrates in the form of Zircon minerals with a percentage of 22.03% - 65.89% levels, followed by Titanium (TiO2) with a percentage of levels of 10.54% - 38.58% and followed by other minerals in small elements. While Rare Earth Oxides (OTJ) there are several minerals, namely Scandium (Sc), Ytterbium (Yb), Yitrium (Y), Thorium (Th), Uranium (U). This shows that there is potential for rare earth metals at mining sites, namely zircon sand mining in the Ketapang Regency area.
