The Pulmoddai placer sands in Sri Lanka(9°3’23.65’’-8°51’38.83’’N and 80°55’22.91’’-81°3’32.65’’E) is considered to be one of the major rare earth element(REE) prospects world-wide. This deposit has a global significance in terms of strategic economic resources and can provide valuable insight for resource estimation and for its economic use. A detailed study of the geochemical, mineralogical, and textural properties of the heavy minerals of this region is undertaken applying the scanning electron microscopy-electron dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(SEM-EDS), inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectroscopy(ICP-OES), X-Ray diffraction(XRD), and X-Ray fluorescence(XRF) techniques. The results from these analyses are modeled to delineate the source(s) which contribute to the formation of the mineral deposits and their subsequent enrichment. The beach sediment from this region, exhibited elevated concentrations of major elements like silicon(Si) and manganese(Mn) and high abundance of minor and trace elements like yttrium(Y), strontium(Sr), lanthanum(La), barium(Ba), which indicates that the provenance is similar to calcium-silicate rocks. The highest(total) concentration of Y, La, scandium(Sc) and cerium(Ce) are mainly associated to fine grained sediment, signifying that their occurrences are governed by the grain size distribution and ambient hydrodynamic conditions primarily from lagoonal input. Monazite, zircon, ilmenite, rutile, and xenotime are more abundant than garnet in the study area, as is evident from the higher abundance of thorium(Th) and uranium(U) and the enrichment of zirconium(Zr), Ce, vanadium(V), chromium(Cr), and Y. Textural analysis of sediment shows sediment particles are poorly sorted and have more angular grain boundaries, indicating their lower textural maturity. This suggests that the sediment is fluvially derived from a close source rock of charnockite specific to the hinterland lithology.
