What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Sedimentary rock
- Igneous rock
- Geochemistry
His primary scientific interests are in Geochemistry, Fold, Metamorphic rock, Metamorphism and Continental crust. His Geochemistry study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Lithosphere, Craton and Ore genesis. The concepts of his Lithosphere study are interwoven with issues in Subduction, Continental margin and Metallogeny.
His Metamorphic rock research includes themes of Anticline, Fault, Mineral resource classification and Shear zone. Frank P. Bierlein focuses mostly in the field of Metamorphism, narrowing it down to topics relating to Mesothermal and, in certain cases, Reef, Volcanic rock, Paleozoic and Ordovician. His research in Continental crust intersects with topics in Ultramafic rock, Skarn, Supercontinent, Mafic and Precambrian.
His most cited work include:
- Iron Oxide Copper-Gold (IOCG) Deposits through Earth History: Implications for Origin, Lithospheric Setting, and Distinction from Other Epigenetic Iron Oxide Deposits (310 citations)
- Iron Oxide Copper-Gold (IOCG) Deposits through Earth History: Implications for Origin, Lithospheric Setting, and Distinction from Other Epigenetic Iron Oxide Deposits (310 citations)
- Tectonic implications from Re–Os dating of Mesozoic molybdenum deposits in the East Qinling–Dabie orogenic belt (258 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Frank P. Bierlein mainly investigates Geochemistry, Terrane, Tectonics, Paleozoic and Fold. The study incorporates disciplines such as Mineralogy and Metallogeny in addition to Geochemistry. His Terrane research integrates issues from Subduction, Schist, Provenance, Geodynamics and Archean.
His Tectonics research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Structural basin, Mineral resource classification, Sedimentary rock, Phanerozoic and Mantle. His Mafic research incorporates elements of Iron oxide copper gold ore deposits, Continental crust, Skarn, Basalt and Supercontinent. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Precambrian, Petrology and Ultramafic rock.

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Frank P. Bierlein mostly deals with Geochemistry, Mafic, Continental crust, Tectonics and Terrane. His studies deal with areas such as Subduction, Porphyry copper deposit, Gold deposit, Petrology and Continental margin as well as Geochemistry. He specializes in Mafic, namely Felsic.
His studies in Felsic integrate themes in fields like Iron oxide copper gold ore deposits, Ultramafic rock, Skarn, Supercontinent and Precambrian. The Tectonics study combines topics in areas such as Sedimentary rock, Structural basin and Geochronology. His Terrane research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Mineralization, Igneous rock, Back-arc basin and Pluton.
Between 2008 and 2020, his most popular works were:

His scientific interests lie mostly in Geochemistry, Precambrian, Mafic, Supercontinent and Skarn. He undertakes interdisciplinary study in the fields of Geochemistry and Context through his research. His work deals with themes such as Felsic, Iron oxide copper gold ore deposits, Continental crust and Ultramafic rock, which intersect with Precambrian.
His Extensional tectonics study combines topics in areas such as Shear, Transform fault, Fault and Syncline. He combines subjects such as Radiometric dating, Greisen, Molybdenite, Ore genesis and Zircon with his study of Isochron. His Volcano research includes elements of Foreland basin, Continental margin, Plate tectonics, Lithosphere and Accretionary wedge.
