Rocks are made of minerals, and a crucial part of understanding mineralisation is understanding how the various critical metals are distributed within minerals in rocks. A crucial application for deep ...

This project aims to use molten alkali salts to reprocess mine waste, and transform the rare earths to a readily exploitable form. This project expects to create a scalable industrial separation ...

This network of ANU researchers in all aspects of critical minerals research works across geology, resource discovery and new technologies for extraction.

This project is a collaboration between CSIRO, ANU and Lynas Corporation, under CSIRO's iPhD program. It aims to understand the genesis of the niobium enrichment at the Mt Weld carbonatite and to use ...

Although Australia has significant reserves there is very limited production. By improving our understanding of the geochemical behaviour of the rare earths we aim to develop new reverse-engineering ...

This project aims to provide geological constraints on the thickness and nature of the sub-continental lithospheric mantle (SCLM) beneath the North Australian Craton (NAC) and adjacent regions in the ...

We have previously developed the EvoFam computational pipeline [1,2] for detecting paralogous families of structured cis-regulatory regions transcriptome-wide in mammals, using mutational information ...

The first step in ribosome biogenesis is the transcription of ribosomal RNA genes (rDNA) that encode the ribosomal RNAs, which form the nucleic acid backbone of ribosomes and is therefore essential ...
