Profile

Professor Nadeau obtained his PhD in Earth Sciences from McGill University, Canada, in 2011, working on the active magmatic-hydrothermal and volcanic system of Merapi Volcano, Indonesia. The study of active hydrothermal systems turned out to be a very interesting approach for the study of mineralized, but extinct hydrothermal systems. Subsequent Post-doctoral work in the UQAM-Geotop research center, Canada, thus targetted at improving our understanding of alkaline-carbonatite magmatic-hydrothermal complexes and related REE-Nb mineralization, using trace element as well as C-O-Sr-Nd isotopic systems. Nadeau simultaneously started conducting research on multiple Archean intrusion related and orogenic Au deposits of the Superior Craton, Canada, and on an IOCG prospect from the Labrador Trough, Canada. During his time as a professor at the University of Ottawa, Nadeau’s group was focussed on Archean gold of the Superior Province, Canada, and developed the use of lithium isotopes in the study of hydrothermal alteration, by looking at a variety of different world-class gold deposits in Canada. The work on lithium isotopes led to the investigation of hydrothermal clay minerals (e.g., chlorite, sericite) as adsorption traps for colloidal gold transport, and to the development of potassium isotopes in the study of hydrothermal alteration.
