Partitioning of REE and CM between crystals, melts and fluids and in situ XAS studies of metal transport
This PhD project will investigate how rare earth elements (REEs) and critical metals (CMs) partition between crystals, melts, and fluids within evolving carbonatite systems. The research will utilise high-pressure experimental petrology and synchrotron-based techniques, including in situ X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS), to understand the transport mechanisms of these metals.
