Dr. Charles D. Beard

I am a research associate in Economic Geology at the Dept. of Earth Sciences, University of Cambridge and affiliate of Clare College. My research centres on the geodynamic and magmatic controls on the mineralisation of raw materials critical for renewable energy infrastructure. Application of a systems approach, and the integration of field, experimental, and theoretical studies aims to streamline exploration efforts.

I studied for my M. Sci at the University of Bristol, UK and the University of British Columbia, Canada, and completed my Ph.D. at McGill University, Canada in 2018.
