Investigating the links between volcanism, tectonics, geomorphology, and mineralisation to better understand the formation of porphyry copper deposits.

🌋@Nature PAPER ALERT!🌋 Great to see this work by former @bristolpcd PhD student, Marit van Zalinge, published in such an iconic journal! Kudos to the whole team: Marit, @Darren_F_Mark, Steve Sparks, @TremblayMarissa, Brenhin Keller, moi & @AlisonRust 🥂 go.nature.com/3bqshPd









🚨 NEW PAPER! 🚨 Ever wondered how pluton exhumation influenced those porphyry #copper deposits in northern Chile? 🤔 Simon Dahlström has the answer! Find out more in our #openaccess @SocietyEconGeol paper w/@bristolpcd, @isotopesUK, @BrightonUniGeo, @bhp: bit.ly/pnexcl



Congrats to Dr. @DamarisButters who, after years of relentless zircon-hosted melt inclusion polishing, today sliced into a zircon PhD viva cake to reveal the hidden Smartie inclusions. (Thanks for yet another tasty bake @Ocean_sands21)
