Thortveitite: Measurement & Overview

Thortveitite is a rare mineral consisting of scandium yttrium silicate (Sc,Y)2Si2O7. It is the most widespread scandium mineral, but natural thortveitite is not widely exploited as a source of scandium metal. Most scandium is derived from mine tailings, which can include thortveitite. Thortveitite mining in the United States ceased in 1969.
