I am committed to explore global mechanisms of metal migration and local ore-forming processes in various geological settings especially those important yet hardly accessible such as Earth's mantle and lower oceanic crust, or Martian surface. I use a variety of methods starting from basic field work and optical microscopy up to more challenging such as SHRIMP and fs-LA-ICPMS, and recently remote sensing. Currently, I am working mostly with lower crustal rocks from Atlantis Bank at the Southwest Indian Ridge (IODP Expedition 360), as well as meteorites and remote sensing data from the Tharsis volcanic province on Mars (ExoMars mission).
