We are looking for a PhD student in Ore Geology with focus on ore characterization. The PhD-project will comprise petrology and mineralogy in a detailed deposit study in the Skellefte VMS District. The character of the ore will be documented in terms of metal content, mineral associations, metal distribution etc, using geometallurgical and mineralogical techniques (e.g. hypespectral methods, XRD, SEM-WDS, Laser Ablation ICPMS). Results will have to be prepared for use within the larger framework of geometallurgical modelling to provide a base for predicting mineral process performance and mine planning considering the geological variability of the ore. The project is part of the geometallurgy work package of CAMM.
Fieldwork and drillcore logging in the deposit area will be an important part of the study and therefore experience from drillcore- and bedrock mapping is a merit.
Ore Geology belongs to the Division of Geosciences, being part of the Department of Civil, Environmental and Natural Resources Engineering with about 280 employees (http://www.ltu.se/tkg?l=en). As a PhD student, you will be involved in teaching in the geology-related programs of the department.
Qualifications
Applicants must have excellent academic credentials and recently completed their M.Sc or equivalent degree in Geosciences with specializations in mineralogy and petrology, and be admitted for post graduate studies. The applicants must possess good skills in written and spoken English.
Application
Applications should include CV, copies of degree certificates (diploma/tests/grades record) and other documents that the applicant wants to refer to. Send your application marked with the reference no 289-11 to Luleå University of Technology, The Registry secretary, SE-971 87 LULEÅ, or by e-mail toregistrator@ltu.se
Deadline for application is March 15, 2011.
Information
Employment on a “doktorandtjänst” is for 4 to maximum 5 years (if teaching or other departmental work is included in the position). PhD students at Luleå University of Technology usually conclude a licentiate degree halfway through their studies. Main work will be conducted at Luleå University of Technology in Luleå.
