The first step in REO production is mining, wherein crude ore is blasted and transported for further refining. Crude ore abstracted from the Bayan Obo mine is composed of both monazite and bastnasite.</technologyDescriptionAndIncludedProcesses>

			<useAdviceForDataSet xml:lang="en">Users of this LCA data should follow the market-value based allocation method to estimate the environmental impacts of REO production unless there is a specific reason to use an alternative allocation scheme. It is important to apply this data with the understanding that it represents a conservative benchmark of the environmental profile of REEs. Additionally, when extending or applying the data to evaluate the production of individual REE or REE-based technologies and products, ensure that geographical relevance is considered, i.e., Chinese-specific data is used for China, and European LCI data is used when applicable to other regions.</useAdviceForDataSet>
			<useAdviceForDataSet xml:lang="zh">LCA数据的用户应遵循基于市场价值的分配方法来估算REO生产的环境影响，除非有特定的理由使用其他分配方案。理解该数据代表REE环境概况的保守基准是重要的。另外，当扩展或应用数据来评估个别REE或基于REE的技术和产品的生产时，确保考虑地理相关性，即对中国使用中国特定的数据，适用其他地区时使用欧洲LCI数据。</useAdviceForDataSet>
