Bastnäsite (also spelt Bastnaesite) is an extremely rare gem and one of the few rare earth element (REE) carbonate minerals. Bastnäsite may be weakly radioactive as defined in 49 CFR 173.403 (greater than 70 Bq/gramme) due to the presence of the rare earth element (REE) Cerium (64%). Bastnäsite and Monazite both contain Cerium (Ce) and are the two largest sources of Cerium. Gems are usually small and moderately included.
Bastnäsite is one of the unusual minerals that exhibit the piezoelectric effect. Piezoelectricity is the ability of some mineral crystals to generate a voltage in response to applied mechanical stress such as an external pressure. Piezoelectricity was discovered in 1880 by French physicists, brothers Jacques and Pierre Curie.
