RAMESH CHANDRA BEHERA

About

I work on gold metallogeny and critical mineral systems, with a focus on the trace element geochemistry of pyrite and its role in invisible gold mineralization. My work involves geological field work, mineral chemistry, and analytical techniques such as EPMA and LA-ICP-MS to understand the ore formation and genesis of gold and critical mineral deposits.
