There is very much information packed into this volume, and my review is limited to the Castor and Hedrick chapter (pp. 769-792).
These two authors survey: REE abundances (upper crust and chondrite), the major REE-bearing minerals, REE production by nations in different years, major REE-producing sites on Earth, geology of major REE deposits, HREE concentrations (including La/Gd comparisons of major REE-bearing deposits), etc. Then they cover REE-prospecting methods, REE-mining procedures, REE extraction and processing (including helpful flow charts), economic factors (REE prices), REE usage, and a forecast for REE demand in the future.
