Ore Deposits
M.Sc. thesis project on rhenium in porphyry-type ore deposits
We are looking for a student for a 2-year M.Sc. thesis project at the Department of Earth Sciences, University of Toronto. The project is focused on identifying the processes controlling rhenium concentrations in porphyry-type ore deposits and will involve high-pressure-temperature experiments and laboratory work on natural samples from a number of deposits. Candidates should have a B.Sc. degree in Earth Sciences and strong background in petrology, mineral deposits and chemistry. The project would preferably start in June, 2018. At this time, only Canadian citizen or permanent resident applicants can be admitted.
Please consult the department’s website about admission requirements: https://www.es.utoronto.ca/programs/graduate/how-to-apply/
