NL4D

@AngloAmerican funded consortium of universities researching Northern Bushveld PGE-Cu-Ni-Co mineralisation to benefit mining and exploration ⚒🦺 #NL4D

[Erin Thompson @erinthompson21]

Today I submitted my PhD thesis - and on the same day as my fabulous housemate @mmills_pgr as well! 🥳

It’s been a great four years with @NorthernLimb4D and @GeologyLeics! Looking forward to a relaxing Christmas period and new adventures in 2025!

Excited to share the first paper from my PhD has been published in Chemical Geology today!

We used Niggli Numbers to examine local contamination and it's impact on Ni-Cu-PGE mineralisation in the Platreef, northern Bushveld Complex.

I’ve had a great week in Windhoek, Namibia for the @SocietyEconGeol 2024 Conference! I presented both a talk and a poster on carbonate contamination and Ni-Cu-PGE in the deep Platreef at Sandsloot. Now for a quick road trip around Namibia before finishing up my PhD 😅🇳🇦

[Erin Thompson @erinthompson21]

Had a great time yesterday presenting an update on my PhD at the @GeologyLeics PGR Day - it was great seeing how everyone’s research has progressed!
Many thanks to the organisers @hannahjsellers and @The_Volcano_Guy as well!
