Academic rigor, journalistic flair
Professor, University of Alberta
I'm a mineralogist and biogeochemist whose work focuses on environmental aspects of economic geology. I use crystallography and crystal chemistry to understand and manage environmental change in engineered and natural settings. Much of my work uses carbonation of mineral wastes to remove CO2 from air while enhancing recovery of critical energy metals. I study analogous natural systems, and draw upon ideas from chemical sedimentology and soil science, to inform my applied work.
