FYI our ores research group is not using X anymore. We are still very active and I will be setting up another account somewhere more appropriate, perhaps LinkedIn. In the meantime, visit my LinkedIn pages or my Youtube channel Our Metallic Earth. All the best, Taija

Congrats to @ShaneWebb97 for passing his PhD viva today! Excellent work on the metallogeny of Loch Tay, Scotland 🥳

A well-attended SEG Leeds student chapter event on critical minerals today! Good to see many students interested in being part of the solution. Great talks from Green Lithium, CMA, Imerys British Lithium and Plethora #GreenEnergy #NetZero #Mining

Wouldn't it be great to have the next International Geological Congress in Scotland, the birth place of modern geological science? ☺️🤞🤞

Very pleased that our Shane got the best Mineral Systems talk prize at @MDSG_UK in Edinburgh! 🥳🥳🥳

A fantastic talk by our James Shaw this morning at the @MDSG_UK 2024 in #Edinburgh! 😊

First Leeds talk at @MDSG_UK in Edinburgh, with our Shane Webb 😊

#MDSG2024 getting set up in #Edinburgh! Exciting couple of days of talks and posters 😊

Massive congratulations to Georgian Manuc for passing his PhD viva with minor corrections! Excellent work on the structural evolution of the #gold deposits on the Baie Verte peninsula in #Newfoundland 🥳🥳🥳

A new video on Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide (VMS) deposits now online youtube.com/watch?v=lp27OR… on my Youtube channel "Our Metallic Earth" @ourmetallicearth" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">youtube.com/@ourmetallicea… VMS deposits are a significant source for #Lead #Zinc #copper #cobalt #GOLD and #Silver More videos coming in 2024!

PhD project available with us at @OMGLeeds , looking at the base metal mineralisation across Northern England and Southern Scotland, in collaboration with @TheGeoFather at Edinburgh. Deadline 5 Jan, for Oct 2024 start. See details at panorama-dtp.ac.uk/research/varia…

A new video on #cobalt is now online on my Youtube channel "Our Metallic Earth" @ourmetallicearth" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">youtube.com/@ourmetallicea…. Cobalt is a crucial metal in lithium batteries because it stabilises the extremely flammable lithium. youtube.com/watch?v=5N2zbo… #EnergyTransition #Mining

We have launched a new outreach initiative: a YouTube channel called Our Metallic Earth. The channel contains documentary-style videos on metals and their role in our society and in the energy transition. Spread the word! youtube.com/channel/UCTZ6B…

Join Nick Gardiner on 7 Nov 6-7pm as he discusses tin and lithium-bearing granites - both from a metal supply perspective, and how geochemical tools can help us increase our understanding of their formation. Register today geolsoc.org.uk/11-Public-Lect… #GSLLecture #EnergyTransition

The final programme for FINEX has been announced! Reminder it is only £75 for students to register for the two day conference and offers a fantastic networking and learning opportunity! @CardiffSEG @SEGImperial @OMGLeeds @CambSchMines

A massive congrats to Dr James Shaw for passing his PhD viva! Excellent structural and gold geochemical work comparing the Curraghinalt and Cavanacaw good deposits in Northern Ireland.
