- Abstract
The discovery of Dahua nephrite has eased the increasingly tight nephrite supply situation in China. This suggests that Dahua nephrite was formed in a sedimentary metamorphic environment, with high oxygen fugacity and a single source of nephrite ore-forming fluid. The REE distribution pattern of Dahua nephrite had an average value of REE and LREE/HREE of 5.32 and 2.60, respectively, indicating that Dahua nephrite is slightly enriched in light rare earth elements.
