Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Mineral
  • Basalt
  • Igneous rock

His scientific interests lie mostly in Geochemistry, Zircon, Mafic, Paleozoic and Subduction. His Geochemistry research includes themes of Porphyry copper deposit and Mineralogy. His Zircon research includes elements of Fractional crystallization, Mantle, Mantle wedge, Geochronology and Underplating.

His Mafic research incorporates themes from Massif and Ultramafic rock. Kezhang Qin combines subjects such as Precambrian, Island arc and Volcanic rock with his study of Paleozoic. Kezhang Qin performs multidisciplinary study on Subduction and Permian in his works.

His most cited work include:

  • Paleozoic accretionary and collisional tectonics of the Eastern Tianshan (China): Implications for the continental growth of Central Asia (631 citations)
  • Palaeozoic accretionary and convergent tectonics of the southern Altaids: implications for the growth of Central Asia (408 citations)
  • Paleozoic multiple subduction-accretion processes of the southern Altaids (384 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary areas of study are Geochemistry, Zircon, Mafic, Petrology and Mineralization. His study in Geochemistry is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Porphyry copper deposit and Hydrothermal circulation. The Zircon study which covers Subduction that intersects with Paleozoic.

His research in Mafic intersects with topics in Fractional crystallization, Basalt, Gabbro and Ultramafic rock. His Petrology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Diorite and Porphyritic. His Mineralization study deals with Fluid inclusions intersecting with Meteoric water and Chalcopyrite.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geochemistry (104.62%)
  • Zircon (45.13%)
  • Mafic (22.05%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Geochemistry (104.62%)
  • Zircon (45.13%)
  • Sphalerite (9.23%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His primary scientific interests are in Geochemistry, Zircon, Sphalerite, Hydrothermal circulation and Galena. Kezhang Qin is involved in the study of Geochemistry that focuses on Pyrite in particular. His Zircon study combines topics in areas such as Partial melting, Continental crust, Magma and Quartz monzonite.

While the research belongs to areas of Partial melting, Kezhang Qin spends his time largely on the problem of Olivine, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Petrology and Deformation mechanism. His Sphalerite study incorporates themes from Meteoric water and Magmatic water. His Hydrothermal circulation study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Apatite, Mineral redox buffer and Molybdenum.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Insight into zircon REE oxy-barometers: A lattice strain model perspective (31 citations)
  • A review of intermediate sulfidation epithermal deposits and subclassification (22 citations)
  • Intermediate chromitite in Kızıldağ ophiolite (SE Turkey) formed during subduction initiation in Neo-Tethys (14 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Mineral
  • Basalt
  • Igneous rock

His main research concerns Geochemistry, Zircon, Hydrothermal circulation, Chalcopyrite and Sphalerite. His Geochemistry study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Sulfide, Porphyry copper deposit and Ore genesis. His work in Porphyry copper deposit tackles topics such as Petrogenesis which are related to areas like Volcanic rock.

Within one scientific family, he focuses on topics pertaining to Magma under Zircon, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Seismic anisotropy, Peridotite, Petrology and Deformation mechanism. His work in Hydrothermal circulation covers topics such as Epidote which are related to areas like Diopside, Skarn, Mineral, Hornfels and Felsic. Kezhang Qin interconnects Subduction and Magmatism in the investigation of issues within Continental crust.
