Geophysical and Geological Characterization of Mineral Deposit Localization in the Colorado Mineral Belt and Surrounding Lithosphere
The Colorado Mineral Belt (CMB) contains many important metallic and critical mineral deposits, concentrated (or localized) in a region that is geologically complex. The origins of these deposits are still not well understood making the CMB an ideal place to study how geologic processes concentrate minerals. This project aims to determine where, when, and how these mineral deposits form.
