Abstract
This paper presents the first report of the distribution of the REE in an evolving hydrothermal fluid. Using this distribution, in conjunction with information on the changing physicochemical conditions, the study identifies the sources of REE enrichment, reconstructs the path of REE concentration, and evaluates the REE mineralising capacity of the fluid. Finally, this information is integrated into a predictive model for REE mobilisation applicable not only to Strange Lake but any REE ore-forming system, in which hydrothermal processes were important.
