My
research has had a concentration on those aspects of regional geology,
geochemistry and isotope studies that lead to an enhanced understanding
of the time and place of metal concentrations. Whereas much of my
work has been on porphyry metal systems (Cu-Mo-Au), I have also studied
and reported on the geology of different ores across the hydrothermal
spectrum, ranging into precious metal epithermal ores of Mexico and
New Guinea. My principal focus of activities in these fields is generating
scientific information that may be applied to the actual problems
of discovery of ores and their development as mines. My I currently teach University courses in basic and advanced mineral deposits, mineral resources and societal relevance, as well as on-demand courses in regional settings of ores, hydrothermal alteration, and in ore and alteration microscopy.

geographic
focus has been the Pacific Rim and I have taught numerous short courses
for industrial and academic persons on Porphyry Copper Genesis and
Exploration in Chile, Australia, the Philippines, and New Guinea,
as well as the United States.
