| | TERBIUM in West Virginia Coals (Site not responding. Last check: ) |
 | | Terbium is one of the rare earth elements (REE) present in West Virginia coals with little environmental impact. |
 | | Terbium did not statistically correlate with ash yield, total sulfur or pyritic sulfur but correlated well with other REE such as europium (Eu), samarium (Sm), ytterbium (Yb), lutetium (Lu), scandium (Sc), cerium (Ce), thorium (Th), lanthanum (La) and lead (Pb). |
 | | Terbium was generally low (<0.5 ppm) in most West Virginia coals with slightly higher Tb in coals of the Pocahontas and lower New River Formations and low Tb in Conemaugh and Monongahela Group coals, especially the Pittsburgh, Redstone and Sewickley. |
