Fixed Term: one. year
Closing Date: 19 Dec 2025
Interview Date: Mid Jan 2026
Salary: Academic Grade 6

As part of the Leverhulme Trust funded project "Testing a new concept for critical metal enrichment in Late Archean granites" we are offering a one year postdoctoral post in petrology & geochemistry applied to granite-hosted mineral deposits.

The candidate will be responsible for the analysis of novel in situ tracers in a range of mineral phases via LA-QQQ-ICPMS and LA-MC-ICPMS; the application of these techniques to samples collected from late Archean granites; and the integration of these and other empirical results with phase equilibria melt modelling with the ultimate aim of exploring Sn-Li melt enrichment during melting and crystallization processes

The successful candidate will therefore be technically skilled with appropriate LA-ICPMS experience, with an understanding of thermodynamic (melt) modelling, and have a strong interest in combining these approaches to constraining critical metal budgets of granites. They will join a vibrant research group based at St Andrews with links across the broader research community including the University of Oxford.
