Dr Siyu (Shirley) Hu
- Shirley has expertise in utilising a wide range of analytical tools (SEM-ESD-EBSD, TIMA, XRF mapper, LA-ICP-MS etc.) to characterise ore bodies at multiple scales. Her current projects involve orogenic gold deposits, volcanic massive sulfide deposits, modern seafloor hydrothermal systems and magmatic sulfide deposits. She is also interested in exploring the behaviour of life in extreme environments.
