Born 25.03.1946
Academician of Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS) since 28.05.2008
Corresponding Member of RAS – since 22.05.2003. Division of the Earth Sciences
Director of IGEM RAS
Qualification
2008 – Academician of Russian Academy of Sciences (mineralogy, ore formation).
2003 - Corresponding Member of RAS (mineralogy, ore formation).
1995 – Doctor of Sci. thesis supported in IGEM RAS: “Paragenetic analysis of mineral assemblages in ores of hydrothermal deposits of base and noble metals”.
1977 – Ph.D. thesis supported in IGEM RAS and Institute of Experimental Mineralogy RAS: “Phase relationships in the system Pb-Sn-Sb-S under hydrothermal environment”. (Superevisor – Prof. I.Ya. Nekrasov).
1975 – Ph.D. student at the Institute of Experimental Mineralogy RAS (on physico-chemical geochemistry and mineralogy).
1968 – Graduated as mining engineer-geologist (prospecting and exploration of rare-metal and radioactive metals deposits) from the Moscow Geological-Prospecting Institute:
Main scientific interests
Mineralogy and chemistry of sulfides. Stability, mineral assemblages, structural-textural features of ores of hydrothermal deposits. Mineral-forming processes in epithermal, mesothermal and modern submarine hydrothermal systems. Genesis of hydrothermal deposits of non-ferrous and noble metals. Sources of ore-forming fluids and their components. Last 5 years were spent in studies of mineralogy, fluid inclusions, partition of elements and isotopes among coexisting minerals, mineral parageneses and succession of ore formation.
