About Ria

Dr. Ria Mukherjee is a Lecturer in Earth Sciences in the School of Environmental and Rural Science at the University of New England. Prior to this appointment, she served as a Postdoctoral Fellow in the School of Geosciences at the University of the Witwatersrand from 2015 to 2017. She holds a PhD from Jadavpur University in India, in addition to bachelor's and master's degrees obtained from institutions in India. Mukherjee's research is focused on understanding the key magmatic processes linked to the formation of critical metals including chromium (Cr), nickel (Ni), titanium-vanadium (Ti-V), and platinum-group elements (PGEs). Her work supports exploration efforts for these resources, aligning with the Australian Critical Minerals Strategy 2023-2030, and contributes to maintaining sustainable supply chains essential for green energy transitions, particularly in electric vehicle battery production. Employing strengths in field geology, petrology, and geochemistry, she uses these ores to fingerprint the chemical and geodynamic evolution of Earth.
