Ülevaade
Uurimisrühma teadustegevuse fookuses on perspektiivsete Euroopa Liidu kriitilisi toormeid sisaldavate maapõueressursside geneesi, leviku ja väärindamise potentsiaali selgitamine. Rühma tuumikkompetentsid on seotud setteliste maavarade sh metallirikaste mustade kiltade, karbonaatkivimite ning põlevkivide geokeemia ja mineraloogiaga. Lisaks sellele on viimastel aastatel ellu viidud rida uuringuid aluskorra maagileiukohtade erinevate geoloogiliste aspektide analüüsiks. Iseseisvaks uurimissuunaks on CO2 sidumise ning CO2 ja vesiniku ladustamise alased uuringud.Interdistsiplinaarse koostöö valdkondades nagu ressursside väärindamine ja kavandusjäätmete taaskasutamine, toetub uurimisrühm pikaajalisele teadustööle röntgenstruktuuranalüüsi ja elementanalüüsi vallas.Uurimisrühm haldab geokeemia-mineraloogia laborikompleksi, mis on varustatud ICP-MS, XRF ja XRD analüsaatoritega ning võimaldab läbi viia kompleksseid geokeemilisi, mineraloogilisi ja petroloogilisi uuringuid. Analüütilise kvaliteedi tagamiseks osaletakse Rahvusvahelise Geoanalüütikute Assotsiatsiooni tasemekatsete programmis.
Tähtsamad tulemused
2023. a kirjeldati uus etapiviisilise rikastumise mudel haruldaste muldmetallide leviku selgitamiseks karbifosforiidis ja vanaadiumi rikastumise geneetiline mudel graptoliitargilliidis. Esitleti magnetomeetriliste ja gravimeetriliste seireandmete modelleerimisel baseeruva Eesti maapõue süvaehituse uuringu tulemusi. Kõik nimetatud tööd tuginesid RESTA programmi maapõueprojektidel. Õiglase Ülemineku Fondi vahendite toel alustati tegevusi haruldaste muldmetallide väärindamise valdkonnas TA võimekuse kasvatamiseks.
