His main research concerns Geochemistry, Zircon, Archean, Geochronology and Craton.
His Geochemistry research integrates issues from Petrology and Terrane.
His work is dedicated to discovering how Zircon, Batholith are connected with Pluton and other disciplines.
His Archean study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Lode, Felsic, Crust and Yilgarn Craton.
His Geochronology research incorporates elements of Orogeny, Diachronous, Diagenesis, Proterozoic and Monazite.
Craton connects with themes related to Continental crust in his study.

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His scientific interests lie mostly in Geochemistry, Zircon, Geochronology, Archean and Craton.
His Geochemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Terrane and Yilgarn Craton.
The concepts of his Zircon study are interwoven with issues in Massif, Metamorphism, Petrology and Suture.
His studies in Geochronology integrate themes in fields like Rift, Gold deposit, Proterozoic and Monazite.
His work carried out in the field of Archean brings together such families of science as Sedimentary depositional environment, Murchison meteorite, Dacite and Dharwar Craton.
The concepts of his Craton study are interwoven with issues in Carbonatite, Large igneous province and Geomorphology.
Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Combined U-Pb SHRIMP and Hf isotope study of the Late Paleozoic Yaminué Complex, Rio Negro Province, Argentina : implications for the origin and evolution of the Patagonia composite terrane (52 citations)

- Vestiges of Saxothuringian crust in the central Sudetes, Bohemian massif: Zircon evidence of a recycled subducted slab provenance (35 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Sedimentary rock
- Igneous rock
- Mineral
His primary areas of study are Geochemistry, Zircon, Craton, Terrane and Petrology.
Neal J. McNaughton works mostly in the field of Geochemistry, limiting it down to topics relating to Mineralization and, in certain cases, Monazite, as a part of the same area of interest.
His Zircon research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Massif, Dolomite, Magma and Calcite.
His studies deal with areas such as Fractional crystallization and Amphibole as well as Craton.
As a part of the same scientific family, Neal J. McNaughton mostly works in the field of Terrane, focusing on Suture and, on occasion, Rodinia and Ophiolite.
His Archean study which covers Dharwar Craton that intersects with Greenstone belt and Titanite.
