Petrology and geochemistry of scandium in New Caledonian Ni-Co laterites

The growing demand for scandium (Sc), essential for several modern industrial applications, drives the mining industry to develop alternative Sc sources. In such context, significant Sc concentrations (~100 ppm) were recently reported in several Ni-Co lateritic oxide ores developed after mafic-ultra...
