Researchers found that deep-sea carbonate fluorapatite comprises apatite nanocrystals embedded within an amorphous matrix that primarily hosts samarium, used as a probe for rare earth elements. This disordered nanoarchitecture helps explain why rare earth elements can be readily extracted by acid leaching despite fluorapatite’s low solubility. 07/29/2026
