Small adjustments

Cleared up some language, because it was a bit confusing. Also added a source and noted leaching's use in extracting rare earth elements.Geghk8 (talk) 17:42, 1 March 2024 (UTC)

Added a link to the Kelvin page for consistency, as the same line where Pascals are mentioned, there is a link to that, but not for Kelvins. Also added a link to lanthanides. --Sustainavaleity (talk) 19:23, 1 March 2024 (UTC)
