Research

Discrimination and Vectoring Tools for Ni-Cu-PGE deposits (funded by Anglo American and in collaboration with Reid Keays):

The primary objective of this project will be to develop discrimination and vectoring tools for Ni-Cu-PGE sulphide exploration on the basis of a sound understanding of the pertinent ore-forming processes. In addition, the project aims to improve our knowledge of the key processes involved in the formation of unconventional Ni-(Cu-PGE) sulphide deposits.
