Abstract: Abstract The formation of major Palaeoproterozoic and Mesoproterozoic (Cu)-Au deposits at the metal-rich margins of the Gawler Craton, South Australia, has received a lot of attention, however, the relationship between metal occurrences, the exhumation level… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.tecto.2021.228870
Abstract: Abstract We present crustal scale physical analogue models of multiphase rifting to provide new constraints on the role exerted by faults formed during early extension on structures developed during later episodes of rifting. Our laboratory… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-06067-0
Abstract: Deep geothermal energy (DGE) represents an opportunity for a sustainable and carbon-free energy supply. One of the main concerns of DGE is induced seismicity that may produce damaging earthquakes, challenging its widespread exploitation. It is… read more here.
