Subject: [MSA-talk] Fully-funded PhD position on the future of the gold sector

Hi All (with apologies for cross-postings)

I have a current vacancy for an exciting and fully funded PhD project at the Ralph J. Roberts Center for Research in Economic Geology at the University of Nevada Reno. This project is focused on the global gold mining sector and will examine gold supply and demand, global primary and co- and by-product gold resources, the relative importance of different mineral deposit types and the impact of changes in the global economy and the energy transition on the gold sector. This will include examining the sustainability of the global gold industry and the environmental, social, and governmental/governance challenges that the sector faces.

This PhD project would suit students who have interests in the geosciences and economic geology and economics (especially mineral economics) and would build on an expanding body of research focused on global metal supply and demand; for details of previous publications in this area please see my Google Scholar link below. International applicants are welcome, and applications should be submitted by 1st January 2024 and the project will start in Autumn/Fall 2024. Applications should be submitted via the UNR portal and details are provided here: https://www.unr.edu/geology/graduate/admissions-information.

Please pass on to any suitable candidates who might be interested in this opportunity.

All the best

Simon Jowitt
