This dataset comprises the structural and chemical characterization of the alkali roasting of Eureka Monazite carried out at the University of Leeds during the SoS RARE project (2015-2018). It includes structural data from X-Ray diffraction and Scanning electron microscopy of samples roasted with sodium bicarbonate, thermodynamic calculations for identification of the phases formed during roasting, cyclic voltammetry measurements of samples in a solution of choline chloride-ethylene glycol with a 1:1 molar ratio with 0,1 mol/L glucose and the chemical composition of the samples analysed by inductively coupled plasma spectroscopy.

Solubility and kinetic data for Fe(II)-silicate precipitation over a range of temperatures, as well as metal drawdown and metal release during diagenesis. Characterisation data for solid precipitates using FTIR and XRD. The XRDML data should be opened on Panalytical highscore, and the XLS file should be opened with Excel, Numbers or OpenOffice.
