| Research
Interests |
Theoretical
and experimental studies of the thermodynamics, kinetics and
molecular mechanisms of aqueous processes and water-rock
interaction, especially at
elevated temperatures and pressures. Particular emphasis on
metals and their speciation and transport. Solubility,
calorimetric, spectroscopic, electrochemical, phase equilibrium
and other experimental studies. Field-based studies of ore
deposits, geothermal systems and the environment. Applications
to ore deposits, hydrometallurgy, exploration geochemistry,
radioactive waste disposal and other environmental problems
