Postdoctoral Fellow in Experimental Petrology and Iron Oxide Copper-Gold Systems Australian National University in Australia

Australian National University is advertising a 3-year Postdoctoral Fellow (Level A) in experimental petrology in Canberra, Australia. The project is collaborative with BHP and focuses on two linked research themes: rare earth extraction from tailings and REE enrichment during IOCG formation , with a specific focus on Olympic Dam . This is a strong fit for candidates with backgrounds in geology , geochemistry , earth science , materials science , and experimental mineral systems. The post is aim...

Research Fellow, Carbon Mineralization at the University of Melbourne (Carlton, Melbourne, Australia) is a fixed-term, full-time research role in the Faculty of Science, School of Geography, Earth and Atmospheric Sciences. The project focuses on ex situ carbon mineralization , combining hands-on DAC-MIN pilot plant experimentation with geochemical modelling to advance net zero technologies and practical carbon emissions reduction solutions. The successful candidate will design and run laboratory...

Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR), through the Helmholtz Institute Freiberg for Resource Technology (HIF), is advertising a PhD Student (f/m/d) position on Sources of Li, Sn and W in European Variscan Terranes . The project sits in the intersection of Earth Science , geology , geochemistry , mineralogy , and economic geology , with a strong focus on magmatic systems and ore-forming processes. The research tasks include geochemical and lithological characterization of potential protolit...

Two fully funded PhD positions are available in the Lowell Program at the University of Arizona for research on critical minerals in the southwestern USA. The projects are flexible and may combine field work and laboratory work , with topics spanning conventional and unconventional resources associated with polymetallic base-metal , sediment-hosted U-V-Cu , IOCG (sensu lato), granite-related lithophile element , and carbonatite-REE systems. The positions are intended to start as early as the fir...
