What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Geochemistry, Basalt, Mantle, Eclogite and Xenolith are his primary areas of study.
His study involves Kimberlite, Petrogenesis, Geology of the Moon, Igneous rock and Lunar magma ocean, a branch of Geochemistry.
The Igneous rock study which covers Chondrite that intersects with Mineralogy.
In his study, Pigeonite is strongly linked to Olivine, which falls under the umbrella field of Basalt.
His studies deal with areas such as Ultramafic rock and Crust as well as Mantle.
