Abstract
Abstract—This paper presents the results of the first geological, isotope, geochemical, and mineralogical study of carbonatite veins that were previously unknown in the Soustov pluton. The studied veins are similar in the Sm–Nd isotope composition and model age to the host rocks, which implies a common formation processs. High contents of light lanthanides, Sr, and Nb in carbonatite veins were measured. These elements are concentrated in bastnasite, strontianite, monazite, and pyrochlore. These data significantly enlarge our concepts of the geochemical and ore specialization of the massif.
