A University of Michigan researcher is making breakthroughs in earth science. For years, the conditions for gold enrichment in magmas have been debated, but Adam Simon, a Professor of Earth and Environmental Sciences at U-M, and his team have discovered a new gold-trisulfur complex that sheds light on how gold deposits form. Their model reveals how this complex helps transport gold from the mantle to the surface, especially in subduction zones. Learn more in this research spotlight from Michigan News.
