Description: As increasing demand for green energy and high-tech devices grows, so does rising prospection of rare earth metals required for their production. Protecting the environment and public health from rare earth elements mining as well as emerging pollutants is urgently required to achieve sustainable development. This study mapped earth's hidden rare earth elements deposits to identify potential contamination hotspots with the aim of preventing the deleterious effects on the environment. We worry about there would be widespread tailing facilities concomitant with serious pollutions like as the Bayan Obo tailings site and suggest that a tradeoff between the underground REE exploration and environment conservation should be reached as soon as possible.
