As part of his studies on Geochemistry, Richard J. Goldfarb often connects relevant subjects like Tectonics.
His work deals with themes such as Orogeny, Metallogeny, Continental margin, Prospectivity mapping and Mineral exploration, which intersect with Terrane.
Richard J. Goldfarb has researched Metallogeny in several fields, including Devonian, Cretaceous and Paleozoic.
His Craton research incorporates themes from Gondwana and Proterozoic.
His Metamorphic rock research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Metamorphism and Mantle wedge.
His most cited work include:
- Orogenic gold deposits : A proposed classification in the context of their crustal distribution and relationship to other gold deposit types (1220 citations)
- Orogenic gold and geologic time: a global synthesis (819 citations)
- Distribution, character and genesis of gold deposits in metamorphic terranes (595 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary scientific interests are in Geochemistry, Terrane, Metamorphic rock, Craton and Archaeology.
His Geochemistry research incorporates elements of Tectonics and Shear zone.
His studies examine the connections between Terrane and genetics, as well as such issues in Continental margin, with regards to Suture.
His Metamorphic rock research includes elements of Quartz, Fluid inclusions and Mineralogy.
His research in Craton intersects with topics in Porphyritic, Igneous rock and Archean.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Orogeny and Mantle wedge in addition to Metamorphism.
He most often published in these fields:
- Geochemistry (85.34%)
- Terrane (26.18%)
- Metamorphic rock (21.99%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?
- Geochemistry (85.34%)
- Metamorphic rock (21.99%)
- Monazite (5.24%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Richard J. Goldfarb mostly deals with Geochemistry, Metamorphic rock, Monazite, Pyrite and Shear zone.
His Geochemistry study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Fluid inclusions and Thrust fault.
His work investigates the relationship between Monazite and topics such as Arsenopyrite that intersect with problems in Skarn, Country rock and Zircon.
His work in Shear zone addresses issues such as Greenstone belt, which are connected to fields such as Sinistral and dextral, Hypogene, Mafic, Transtension and Siliciclastic.
His Archean research focuses on Rift and how it relates to Craton.
The study of Metamorphism is intertwined with the study of Terrane in a number of ways.
Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Structural geometry of orogenic gold deposits: Implications for exploration of world-class and giant deposits (66 citations)
- A comparison of Jiaojia- and Linglong-type gold deposit ore-forming fluids: Do they differ? (34 citations)
- A comparison of Jiaojia- and Linglong-type gold deposit ore-forming fluids: Do they differ? (34 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Sedimentary rock
- Paleontology
- Basalt
His primary areas of study are Geochemistry, Metamorphic rock, Monazite, Archean and Hydrothermal circulation.
Richard J. Goldfarb undertakes multidisciplinary investigations into Geochemistry and Metamorphic facies in his work.
His Hydrothermal circulation research is multidisciplinary, relying on both In situ and Eastern china.
His studies in Meteoric water integrate themes in fields like Mineralization, Gold deposit, Cataclastic rock, Fluid inclusions and Petrography.
His Zircon study incorporates themes from Skarn, Arsenopyrite, Country rock and Sericite.
His study in Sill is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Metamorphism, Fold, Shear zone and Terrane.
