About this position
University College Dublin’s iCRAG Research Ireland Centre for Applied Geosciences is recruiting postdoctoral researchers to join Koen Torremans’ research group on mineral systems and ore deposit research.
The advertised work spans structural geology, Earth science, geochemistry, spectral petrology, hyperspectral and core-scanning methods, 3D geomodelling, microstructural analysis, and exploration-focused studies of Zn-Pb deposits. Projects include the Galmoy Zn-Pb deposit in Ireland, the Rosh Pinah Zn-Pb-Ag deposits in Namibia, and related work on natural hydrogen and carbon capture and storage in ophiolites in Oman.
There are three postdoctoral positions open for 24 months, with salary in the range €47,273–€60,250 p.a. (PD1 or PD2), plus a Research Assistant role coming soon. The post emphasizes applied geoscience, mineral systems, and lower-impact mining/exploration research, with strong collaboration across industry and research partners.
Eligibility highlights include being a new or experienced postdoc, and for one role, having a background as a spectral petrologist or similarly data-flexible researcher. Applications are submitted via the linked portal using the relevant job reference numbers.
Postdoc 1 reference: 020019. Postdoc 2 reference: 020024. Postdoc 3 and the Research Assistant role will be posted later.
