9729653GreggThis three-year award supports US-Ireland cooperative research on the origin and distribution of sulfide mineralization in the Irish Midlands, epigenetic open-space-filling dolomite and calcite cements, and dolomites as replacements for limestone. The collaboration involves Jay Gregg and Kevin Shelton and their graduate students at the University of Missouri and Ian Somerville's research group at University College Dublin. The project's focus on fluid sources and flow paths, and regional physical and chemical changes in sedimentary rocks is important to understanding the distribution of base metals and petroleum in basins.The project brings together the complementary expertise of American and Irish scientists and takes advantage of sharing of available facilities and equipment in Ireland and the US.

9729653格雷格这个为期三年的奖项支持美国-爱尔兰合作研究的起源和分布的硫化物矿化在爱尔兰中部地区，后生开放空间填充白云石和方解石胶结物，以及石灰石的替代品。 这项合作涉及杰伊格雷格和凯文谢尔顿和他们的研究生在密苏里州和伊恩萨默维尔的研究小组在大学学院都柏林。 该项目的重点是流体来源和流动路径，以及沉积岩的区域物理和化学变化，这对于了解盆地中贱金属和石油的分布非常重要。该项目汇集了美国和爱尔兰科学家的互补专业知识，并利用了爱尔兰和美国共享的可用设施和设备。
