I am an emerging expert in the fields of applied mineralogy, trace element geochemistry and isotope geochemistry, with application of these methods to understanding the origin(s) of metals and fluids responsible for the formation of magmatic-hydrothermal metal deposits and to mine site remediation. My research encompasses a wide variety of analytical instrumentation and methodologies including light microscopy, XRD, SEM-EDX, EMPA, FTIR, XRF, ICP-AES/MS, INAA, Leco infra-red, wet chemistry, stable isotopes, radiogenic isotopes and K-Ar geochronology. My research has also resulted in several collaborative projects (throughout Canada, USA, Mexico and France) with university researchers, government, and mining and exploration companies.
