Geology and Geophysics
My research interests are focused in the field of mineralogy, geochemistry and genesis of ore deposits of gold, base metals, uranium and rare earth elements. Major themes of my recent research include: (i) EPMA monazite dating of greenstones and geochemistry of accessory hydrothermal minerals in relation to gold metallogeny in the Dharwar Craton, (ii) metamorphic melt-assisted remobilization of massive sulfide deposits (natural and experimental), (iii) geochemistry of pyrite and arsenopyrite from metamorphosed and metamorphogenic deposits, (iv) uranium mineralization and REE metasomatism, (v) genesis of carbonatite-hosted REE-Nb-Ta-F mineralization, (vi) chemical and isotopic compositions of tourmaline and hydrothermal ore formation.
