Apologies for multiple postings. We have funding in the Department of Geology & Geological Engineering at the Colorado School of Mines, for a graduate student to do research in metamorphic petrology, starting in Spring semester 2009. A number of project possibilities are available, encompassing the fields of petrology, geochemistry, metamorphism of ore deposits, and behaviour of dateable accessory minerals in metamorphic and hydrothermal environments. Projects can be tailored to individual interests and strengths. Interested students can contact me by email or phone. The deadline for applications for the Spring semester is November 1. -- *********************************************************** Dr Nigel Kelly Assistant Professor - Metamorphic Petrology Department of Geology and Geological Engineering Colorado School of Mines 1516 Illinois Street Golden, CO, 80401 U.S.A Office: +1-303-384-2064 Fax: +1-303-273-3859 ***********************************************************
