New Mexico Bureau Geology and Mineral Resources issued the following announcement on July 10.
Bureau Economic Geologist and New Mexico Tech Assistant Professor in the Earth and Environmental Science Department Dr. Alexander Gysi presented a talk at this year’s virtual Goldschmidt Conference.
Dr. Gysi’s talk “Fluid-mineral partitioning of REE in critical mineral deposits” focuses on the behavior of rare earth elements (REEs) in hydrothermal fluids and the formation of deposits in vein minerals. The talk details experimental work conducted by Dr. Gysi’s lab group (MINES thermodynamic database) that supports the development of new thermodynamic models to help scientists better understand these chemically-complex systems.
