SCIENTIFIC ACTIVITY

  • Investigation of ore-forming processes with a focus on those of magmatic-hydrothermal origin. The main tasks are: 1. Recostruction of 3D geometries of magmatic and hydrothermal bodies; 2. Petrographic, geochemical and isotopic (Sr, Nd, Pb, O, H) investigation of magmatic and hydrothermal rocks; 3. Isotope dating (40Ar-39Ar, U-Pb) of magmatic and hydrothermal minerals
  • Investigation of transfer processes of potentially toxic elements from natural sources
  • Geochemical and isotopic (Pb) tracing of materials/artifacts from archeological sites
  • Author of 16 scientific papers in peer-reviewed International journals. H-index: 8 (fonte: Scopus)
