PhD in Geology and Mineralogy
Senior Researcher
Institute of Geology and Geochronology of the Precambrian, Russian Academy of Sciences (IGGD RAS)
Research Interests:Geochronology, Upper Proterozoic, globular and fine-dispersed layered silicates, detrital zircon, Mössbauer spectroscopy:
- An approach to isotopic dating of argillites based on the separation and analysis of different-sized submicron fractions of clay minerals using leaching techniques and X-ray diffraction and electron microscopy control of the evolution of illite — the main geochronometer of clastic sedimentary rocks;
- Investigation of globular layered silicates of the glauconite-illite series (GLS) using a combination of mineralogical-geochemical, isotopic-geochronological and spectroscopic methods (Mössbauer and IR spectroscopy) in order to determine the causes of disturbance of K-Ar and Rb-Sr isotopic systems and to identify geological settings that contribute to the "rejuvenation" of these minerals.
