Biography
Imperial College London
My research focuses on understanding the geochemistry of hydrothermal systems, in particular how metals are transported and deposited to form ore deposits, and developing geochemical tools for mineral exploration. Current research areas include:
- Metal transport and controls of fertility in porphyry ore deposits
- Mineral chemistry of hydrothermal alteration and exploration applications
- Use of transition metal isotopes (Zn Cu, Fe) for tracing metal sources, flow pathways and depositional mechanisms
- Development of laser ablation ICPMS for the determination of metals in fluid inclusions
- Geochemistry of sediment-hosted ore systems
