Biography
Dr. Dare’s research uses geochemistry and mineralogy to study the processes that form magmatic ore deposits (Ni-Cu-PGE-Cr and Fe-Ti-V-P) hosted in mafic-ultramafic igneous complexes. Research is focussed on the trace element content of the ore minerals (oxides, sulfides and apatite) using state-of-the-art techniques (laser ablation ICP-MS). Current research programs include the mineral chemistry of magmatic oxide deposits and the application of mineral chemistry in the exploration of mineral deposits.
