PhD Fellowship in Geochronology and Mineralogy (Detrital Zircons and Heavy Minerals) University of Copenhagen in Denmark

University of Copenhagen is advertising a PhD fellowship in geochronology and mineralogy with a focus on detrital zircons and heavy minerals . The project sits within the research theme “Testing the veracity of detrital zircon” and is financed by the Independent Research Fund of Denmark . The PhD project will involve characterising heavy mineral populations, including U-Pb ages of zircons from metasedimentary source rocks and modern detrital sediments. The work is embedded in the Department of G...
