In this paper, some experimental studies on the forms of existenee and conditions for transport and precipitation of rare earth elements (REE) in sea water have been dealt with. The results show that the ions of REE and carbonate radicles can be combined into quite stable and soluh|e complex in the medium of weak alkalinity. REE precipitation may result from the decomposition of the REE complex during the transformation of the solution from weak alkalinity to neutrality and to weak acidity and in the presence of REE preeipitating agents, such as P, Ba, Ca, and Mg.This is the reason why REE can concentrate in carbonate formations. Experimental results also show that REE will be precipitated .in the form of phosphate or fluocarhanate, if there exist the anions of [PO4]3- and F- in certain quantity in the solution. The experimental results arc consistent with the geologioal characteristics of some REE deposits.
