Eric Potter

Adjunct Professor, Ph.D.

E-mail: eric.potter@canada.ca
Phone: (613) 947-9873

Research interests
Research Interests: Currently leading uranium ore systems research under the Targeted Geoscience Initiative (TGI) project.  Research focuses on: 1) understanding ore fluid chemistry and pathways in order to identify fertile faults that are the main fluid conduits during formation of large tonnage uranium deposits; and 2) addressing metal/fluid sources and processes of uranium enrichment in iron oxide-alkali alteration systems that host IOCG and affiliated deposits by evaluating the spatial and temporal fluid-metal evolution of these metasomatic systems.
