Archean Rare-Metal Pegmatites in Zimbabwe and Western Australia Geology and Metallogeny of Pollucite Mineralisations

Lithium-cesium-tantalum (LCT) pegmatites are important resources for rare metals. For Cs, only the LCT pegmatites with the zeolite group mineral pollucite at Bikita (Zimbabwe Craton) and Tanco (Superior Province Craton) are of commercial importance. Common characteristics of world-class LCT pegmatit...
