Fields of Study
Geology and geochemistry of ore deposits, mineral exploration and economics,
environmental geochemistry related to the recovery and use of minerals, and the
regional geology of the Caribbean region, Central America and Mexico, especially as
it relates to the origin and evolution of mineral deposits in this area.
