Dear colleagues,

Please see below for details of five PhD projects available in the School of Earth Sciences, University of Bristol.

The projects apply volcanology, structural geology, experimental petrology, geochemistry, and geochronology to the overall theme of understanding porphyry copper deposits. We welcome applications from UK, EU, and overseas students with a strong, quantitative, geological background and a keen interest in ore deposits.

Note: Projects marked with * are eligible for NERC GW4+ DTP funding (for more info, click here). Projects marked with $ are potentially eligible for industry funding. All supervisors are based at Bristol unless otherwise indicated.

^$Exhumation of Andean granites: implications for porphyry copper formation and enrichment. pdf.

Supervisors: Dr Frances Cooper and Prof Todd Ehlers (University of Tübingen)

*Magmatism and ore formation in the Altai Mountains, Mongolia. pdf.

Supervisors: Dr Frances Cooper, Dr Matthew Watson, Dr Robin Armstrong (Natural History Museum), Prof Richard Herrington (Natural History Museum)

*$Calibrating Al-in-amphibole barometry to determine the role of granite emplacement depths in the development of porphyry copper deposits. pdf.

Supervisors: Dr Richard Brooker, Dr Brian Tattitch, Dr Frances Cooper, Dr Ben Williamson (University of Exeter)

*$Migration and trapping of magmatic fluids in porphyry copper systems. pdf.

Supervisors: Dr Alison Rust, Prof Jon Blundy, Prof Kathy Cashman
