> We seek an individual with broad interests in structural geology,
> tectonics and geochronology to work on a project dealing with the
> tectonic development of oroclines in the New England belt (eastern
> Australia). The aim of the project is to understand relationships
> between crustal deformation during oroclinal bending and subduction
> processes, focusing on the kinematic and dynamic history of the New
> England oroclines. The project will elucidate how the process of
> oroclinal bending was spatially and temporally related to magmatism and
> ore deposit formation. A PhD student, supervised by Dr Gideon Rosenbaum,
> will conduct fieldwork in Queensland and NSW, mapping structural
> elements and collecting samples for geochronological investigation. The
> project will also have a major geochronological component, involving
> Ar-Ar dating (supervised by Prof Paulo Vasconcelos at the University of
> Queensland) and U-Pb SHRIMP dating (supervised by Dr Daniela Rubatto at
> the Australian National University). The project is fully funded by the
> Australian Research Council. Full tuition and living scholarships are
> guaranteed for competitive candidates.

> The University of Queensland (http://www.uq.edu.au/) is one of

> university in Queensland. It has been named one of the top 50
> universities in the world for the fourth year running in the UK's Times
> Higher Education-QS World University Rankings. The University campus in
> St Lucia is considered by many to be Australia's most attractive. The
> campus is located seven km from the city's heart on a magnificent
> 114-hectare site in a bend of the Brisbane River.
