MSc
Thermochronology of Ore Deposits
Office: EOS-Main Phone:
E-mail:
Profile
I completed my undergraduate MSci at the Royal School of Mines, Imperial College, London in 2004. I started my MSc at UBC in 2009, focusing on far-field expressions of hydrothermal systems as part of the Carlin Footprints project with Dr Ken Hickey. In particular I am investigating how thermochronology can be used to map the thermal halo associated with Carlin-type Au deposits in northern Nevada.
