Nominator's project description
| Dr. Kamenetsky has made outstanding contributions to the understanding of the processes of melting in the Earth's mantle and of forming ore deposits in the crust. He has achieved this by studying microscopic inclusions of melts and fluids in minerals. At the Max-Planck Institute for Chemistry, he will work in close collaboration with the Wolfgang-Paul Project of Alexander Sobolev on the origin of mantle-derived magmas from the ocean floor. |
