Precambrian biogeochemistry, gold metallogeny, sedimentology
Dr. C. S. Sindhuja pursued her Ph.D at Osmania University and CSIR-National Geophysical Research Institute. Her research interest is majorly focused on Precambrian biogeochemistry and gold mineralization. Her doctoral research has significantly contributed in understanding biogenically mediated metallogeny and also delineated the contrasting depostional features of Archean and Proterozoic carbonaceous phyllites. She has published several research articles in high impact factor peer reviewed international journals. She joined CSIR-NGRI in 2022 as Scientist in Geochemistry group. She aims to explicitly elucidate the evidences for gradual evolution of the Earth’s biosphere, atmosphere and lithosphere during the Archean-Proterozoic eras and enhance her the knowledge in understanding the evolving biogeochemical changes and mellatogenic processes during the Precambrian time.
