Biography

Dr. Seán McClenaghan is a funded investigator in the iCRAG Raw Materials spoke. Seán graduated with an MSc from the University of Ottawa and a PhD from the University of New Brunswick, before joining Trinity College Dublin in 2013 as an Assistant Professor. Research focuses on dissecting ore deposit systems through the application of bulk geochemical and advanced micro-analytical techniques. Much of this research has centred on the petrology of massive sulphide (Zn-Pb-Cu-Ag-Au) deposits in the Appalachians and Precambrian Canadian Shield of North America as well as carbonate hosted Zn-Pb deposits of the Irish Midlands.

Active iCRAG projects:

  • Tracing geochemical signatures associated with carbonate-hosted Zn-Pb mineralization in the Irish Midlands - Dr Thomas Riegler
  • Geochemical vectoring for Irish-type Zn-Pb mineralisation along the Rathdowney Trend, Ireland - Oakley Turner
  • Characterizing orogenic vein systems to promote gold exploration across Irish terranes - James Stratford
