How likely can lanthanide carbonates and oxocarbonates form during heating of lanthanide oxides in CO2 bearing atmosphere in 100<T<2100C?

After growing lanthanide oxide (Ln2O3) bearing materials I sometimes find small voids isotropically spread in grown crystals. Can lanthanide cabronates/oxocarbonates form during heating and...
