His studies deal with areas such as Analytical chemistry, Aluminium, Chamosite and Monazite as well as Diagenesis.
His most cited work include:
- Authigenic kaolin and illitic minerals during burial diagenesis of sandstones: a review (206 citations)
- Kaolinite-to-dickite reaction in sandstone reservoirs (131 citations)
- Application of chemical geothermometry to low-temperature trioctahedral chlorites (109 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary areas of study are Mineralogy, Geochemistry, Clay minerals, Illite and Hydrothermal circulation.
His Mineralogy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Chlorite, Quartz and Mineral.
His Geochemistry research focuses on Uranium and how it relates to Leaching.
Daniel Beaufort combines subjects such as Crystallization, Kaolinite, Chemical composition, Silicate and Montmorillonite with his study of Clay minerals.
He interconnects Porosity, Basement, Paragenesis and Facies in the investigation of issues within Illite.
