Chang Liu | Geochemistry | Best Researcher Award

China University of Geosciences Beijing | China

Chang Liu is an emerging geoscientist from the China University of Geosciences, Beijing, with a strong research focus on the genesis and metallogenic processes of skarn-type polymetallic deposits. His doctoral work centers on the Narusongduo Pb-Zn deposit in Tibet, where he integrates zircon U-Pb geochronology, whole-rock geochemistry, Sr-Nd and Ca isotope geochemistry, and mineral-scale trace element analysis to investigate magma evolution, fluid–rock interaction, and ore-forming mechanisms. With expertise in field geology, advanced laboratory techniques, and data interpretation, he has made significant contributions to regional metallogenic models and mineral exploration strategies. His research outputs include the study “Geochronology and Geochemistry of the Galale Cu–Au Deposit in the Western Segment of the Bangong–Nujiang Suture Zone: Implications for Molybdenum Potential,” published in an indexed journal, reflecting his ability to link isotopic and geochemical signatures to mineralization timing and fluid evolution. He has participated in nationally funded projects, including the National Natural Science Foundation of China (Project No. 42472115) and the National Key Research and Development Program (2024YFC2910400), underlining his role in advancing applied geoscience research. To date, his academic record includes 263 citations across 28 documents with an h-index of 7, demonstrating a growing scholarly influence within his field. Although he has not yet held editorial positions, published books, or patents, his contributions lie in integrating multiple analytical approaches to unravel ore-forming processes and guiding future mineral exploration. With an expanding citation profile and innovative research trajectory, Chang Liu is establishing himself as a promising researcher with the potential to make lasting impacts in geochemistry and mineral deposit studies.
