TAO Jihua,associated professor, Supervisor of master. A solid Earth petrologist who carries out research on petrogenesis of Igneous rocks and and its correlation with uranium-polymetallic mineralization, focused on the South China. In recent years, through petrological studies, he revealed that he combination of U-rich sources, physical-chemical conditions such as low partial melting temperature or low degrees of partial melting, high F content, a reduced environment and low REE and LREE contents of magmas controlled the U enrichment in granites. He is also concerned with the formation, evolution and mineralization of the Earth’s continental crust and geochemical cycle on the convergent margins and intraplate magmtism. To date, he has published more than 20 articles in academic journals including Lithos, Science China: Earth Sciences, Acta Geologica Sinica, Geotectonica et Metallogenia and so on.
