Research Projects

Magmatic Studies Group

Project Specific Research Interests & Roles

The Magmatic Studies Group: uses multidisciplinary approaches to investigate the petrogenesis of carbonated and carbonate-rich igneous rocks (both locally and internationally), the magmatic phenomena occurring on the Palaeozoic sea floors of Ireland, and the formation of ore mineralizations associated with magmatic activity. The techniques used include field surveys, petrography and geochemistry, and numerical and experimental modelling.

Geoarchaeological and geomythological: investigations focus on the interplay between exploitation of physical resources in prehistory and landscape evolution in the west of Ireland.
