The abundance of water on Earth has a profound impact on how our planet operates; aqueous fluids facilitate melting and subduction, and hence plate tectonics; control the redistribution of elements to make ore deposits; and determine the availability of (trace) element nutrients to life. Knowledge of the compositions of these fluids is therefore essential. Unfortunately, direct fluid samples are rare, especially for deep in the Earth and for its earliest history. However, minerals with preserved compositions are readily available, sampling environments to more than 200 km depth and back to at least 4.2 billion years ago. Minerals capture a fingerprint of the associated fluid by element exchange, and in my research I investigate how to read this mineral record. This involves understanding how elements partition among minerals, fluids and melts in experiments from surface conditions to high temperature and pressure; computational modelling of mineral lattices to see where elements reside and how they are accommodated, and in-situ trace element work on natural samples. My group applies these tools to research as diverse as early Earth subduction, volcano hazard monitoring, and metal (re)cycling.
