Laboratory of petro- and ore genesis
The laboratory was established in 2019 as part of the Russian National Project "Science and Universities." Its staff studies metamorphic and igneous processes and establishes patterns of their spatiotemporal evolution under various tectonic regimes. A close combination of petrological and geochronological research methods enables a transition from standard petrogenesis analysis in two-dimensional P-T (pressure and temperature) to P-T-t (pressure-temperature-time) coordinates. Using Precambrian rocks as an example, we are developing methods for identifying the sequence of mineral formation using isotopic dating methods for various rock-forming and accessory minerals.
