| Summary: | Apresentação efetuada no IX Congreso Geológico de España, em Huelva, España, 2016 Rare earth elements (REE) were analyzed in surface waters, acid mine waters, and extracts of the mineral precipitates from Iberian Pyrite Belt. NASC (North Atlantic Shale Composition) normalized REE patterns show clear convex curvatures in middle-REE (MREE) with respect to light- and heavy-REE. Moreover, most of the AMD-precipitates release heavy-REE (HREE) to the solution during dissolution experiment, indicating that these minerals retain HREE predominantly from the water and provide REE fractionation along the series. Concentrations of the REE in water and acid mine drainage samples were in the range of 568 ng/L and 2580 µg/L, and significantly higher than previously reported concentrations of the surface waters from the Iberian Pyrite Belt. Financial support was provided by the Andalusian Autonomous Government Excellence Project, code P06- RNM-02167. This work was also co-funded by the European Union through the European Regional Development Fund, based on COMPETE 2020, project ICT (UID/GEO/04683/2013), reference POCI-01-0145-FEDER007690, national funds provided by FCT and Young Scientist Grant (SEAS14-2015) of National University of Mongolia. Post Doctoral Fellowship was supported by Erasmus Mundus SAT program for T.-O. Soyol-Erdene. ...
