At a time of surplus of nearly all metals and the inevitable closing of many mining operations, it is a matter of the industry's survival to seek new commodities that are in high demand. The lanthanides, better known as the rare-earth elements (REE), tantalum (Ta) and niobium (Nb) are among the promising alternatives. Bibliographies of the metallogeny and related aspects of these elements are surprisingly short, despite their rapidly increasing importance in modern technology. A need to review and condense the available expertise has been ernerging in the recent past <...>

The results of mineralogical–technological studies of PGM mineralization in zonal mafic–ultra mafic complexes of the Ural–Alaskan type are given. All studied massifs in the Urals and Kamchatka are characterized by similar evolution of mineral assemblages. The chromite (platinum–chromitite–dunite) and dunite (platinum–pegmatoid dunite) geological–economic types of small platinum deposits and occur rences are separate enriched sites (ore shoots) of largevolume platinum ore deposits. These are rather thick and extended zones of recrystallized dunites with attributes of hightemperature structural deformations and intense fluid reworking.
