About Nadia Mohammadi
Nadia Mohammadi is a Research Scientist at the Geological Survey of Canada (GSC-Central, Ottawa) –Natural Resources Canada– and an Adjunct Research Professor at Carleton University, specializing in igneous petrology and economic geology. Her current research supported by GSC's Targeted Geoscience Initiative (TGI) program, focuses on the petrogenesis and metallogeny of rare metal (e.g., REE, Y, Zr, Nb) mineralization in the eastern Canadian Shield, including Strange Lake (REE-Nb-Zr) and Crater Lake (REE-Sc) deposits. Her research integrates field-based investigations with advanced microanalytical techniques, such as SEM-EDS, laser ablation mineral mapping, isotope geochemistry, and geochronology to unravel magmatic evolution and ore-forming processes. She earned her Ph.D. in Earth Sciences from the University of New Brunswick in 2019, studying Sn-W-Mo mineralization in the Canadian Appalachians.
