Tectonic mode switches coincide with short periods of time during which base and precious metals, as well as diamond-bearing kimberlites are emplaced into the continental crust. Our research is aimed at uncovering why this should be so, thereby perhaps solving a riddle that is at the present little more than an oddity in respect to mineral exploration. If we can understand the underlying science we may be able to provide practical benefits to mineral explorers. The project uses modelling and simulation research infrastructure provided by the AuScope NCRIS initiative, and benefits the community by returning data to this organization.

构造模式的转换与贱金属和贵金属以及含钻石的金伯利岩进入大陆地壳的短暂时期相一致。 我们的研究旨在揭示为什么会出现这种情况，从而或许解决目前矿物勘探中的一个奇怪的谜题。 如果我们能够了解基础科学，我们也许能够为矿物勘探者提供实际的好处。 该项目使用 AuScope NCRIS 计划提供的建模和模拟研究基础设施，并通过向该组织返回数据来造福社区。
