PhD Studentship: Deciphering the Formation, Emplacement, and Ore-Forming Processes of the Rogaland Anorthosite Complex, Norway University of East Anglia in United Kingdom

University of East Anglia (School of Environmental Sciences) is advertising a funded PhD project on the formation, emplacement, and ore-forming processes of the Rogaland Anorthosite Complex in southern Norway. The project is supervised by Dr Zoja Vukmanovic and focuses on one of Earth’s most unusual intrusive rock suites: anorthosites. The research will investigate the Egersund-Ogna massif and associated Fe-Ti oxide ore bodies, with an emphasis on magma dynamics, emplacement mechanisms, and the ...
