“…Whereas most of these works are associated with the detection of REEs in commercially available samples, Abedin et al [184] reported the first multiple rare earth (Ce, La, Pr, Nd, Y, Yb, Gd, Dy, and Er) detection in a naturally occurring monazite mineral by SP-LIBS (Figure 12). Likewise, Haider and Khan [185] detected multiple rare earth (Ce, La, Pr, Nd, Yb, Gd, Dy, Er, Sm, Eu, Ho, and Y) in an enriched zircon sample by SP-LIBS. e same group also identified trace REEs (Nd, Yb, Sm, Ce, Dy, and Gd) in coal samples collected from coal mines of Bangladesh (Barapukuria) and India (Meghalaya) [186].…”

Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) has emerged as a promising technique for both quantitative and qualitative analysis of elements in a wide variety of samples. However, conventional LIBS suffers from a high limit of detection (LoD) compared with other analytical techniques. This review briefly discusses several methods that demonstrate the applicability and prospects for trace element detection while lowering the LoD when coupled with LIBS. This review compares the enhancement mechanisms, advantages, and limitations of these techniques. Finally, the recent development and application of LIBS coupled techniques for trace element detection are also discussed for various samples such as metal alloys, biomaterials, rare earth elements, explosives, drinking water, and water bodies.

“…Long et al [90] recently proposed a data selection method for the reduction of matrix effects and signal uncertainty and to improve repeatability during LIBS analysis. LIBS was used for the detection of REEs and associated elements including nonmetals, like Si and P in the beach sands of southern Bangladesh [91]. LIBS can be used for automatic coal-rock recognition with 97% accuracy when combined with an artificial neutral network in coal quality testing during unmanned coal mining operations [92].…”

The use of analytical techniques is important and critical in all areas related to REE, such as basic fundamental research, exploration, mining, extraction, and metallurgical activities at different stages by different industries. At every stage of these activities, rock, ore, minerals, and other related materials have to be analyzed for their REE contents in terms of elemental, isotopic, and mineralogical concentrations using different analytical techniques. Spectacular developments have taken place in the area of analytical instrumentation during the last four decades, with some of them having shrunk in size and become handheld. Among laboratory-based techniques, F-AAS, GF-AAS, ICP-OES, and MP-AES have become very popular. Because of high sensitivity, fewer interference effects, and ease of use, ICP-MS techniques, such as quadrupole ICP-MS, ICP-MS/MS, ICP-TOF-MS, MH-ICP-MS, HR-ICP-MS, and MC-ICP-MS, with both solution nebulization as well as direct solid analysis using laser ablation sample introduction methods, have become more popular for REE analysis. For direct analysis of solids, INAA, XRF, and LIBS techniques, as well as LA-based ICP-MS techniques, are being extensively utilized. The LIBS technique in particular requires little to no sample preparation. TIMS, SIMS, and SHRIMP techniques are being used for isotopic as well as dating REE depots. Portable analytical techniques, such as pXRF, pLIBS, and Raman spectrometers are able to perform in situ analysis even in the field, helping to make fast decisions during exploration studies. At present, hyperspectral remote sensing techniques including handheld, drone, and satellite-based techniques have become very popular in REE exploration studies because of their ability to cover larger areas in a limited time and, thus, became very cost-effective. Deployment of microanalytical devices/sensors mounted in remotely operated vehicles (ROV) is being successfully utilized in detecting REE-rich deposits in the deep oceans. Providing updated in-depth information on all these important aspects with suitable examples, especially from the point of view of REE research studies is the focal point of this review article.
