Geochemistry Expert Witnesses

In order to provide explanations on the planet’s geological systems, geochemistry utilizes the principals and tools of chemistry. Geochemists study the elements and chemical compositions that the earth is comprised. They are often retained in order to lend their expertise to cases that involve a range of subject areas. Our geochemistry experts have worked as geochemists, geologists, environmental consultants, professors, biologists, engineers, and more. These experts specialize in:

  • Earth and life history
  • Environmental geology
  • Mineralogy
  • Petroleum geology
  • Carbonates
  • Hydrochemistry
  • Physical chemistry
  • Environmental microbiology
  • Astrobiology
  • Geochemical analysis
  • Igneous petrology
  • Groundwater and radioactivity
  • Isotopes
  • Uranium
  • Precious metals
  • Fluid chemistry
  • Aqueous geochemistry
  • Sedimentology
With hundreds of years of combined experience, our geochemistry experts have successfully testified for both plaintiffs and defense in a variety of cases, and are prolific international authors and lecturers. Their published works span topics that include archaeological artifacts, the origin of ore deposits, mineral chemistry, biogeochemistry, pale climatology, petroleum reservoirs, basaltic magmatism, chlorinated solvents, perchlorate, radium, geochemistry of metal deposits and coal, seafloor installations, hydrocarbon seepage, and groundwater chemistry.

Here are a few of our favorite Geochemistry Expert Witnesses:

I have 15 years of experience and specialize in the field of geomicrobiology, with specific knowledge of geobiology, astrobiology and environmental microbiology. I have published on such topics as distinguishing between materials made by life and non-living materials, and the limits of organic (carbon-based) life.

 

I have 22 years of experience in the field of geology, with specific knowledge of carbonates, petroleum geology, and geochemistry. I have published on such topics as petroleum reservoirs, pale climatology, and isotope geochemistry.

 

I have 25 years of experience and specialize in the field of geology and physical chemistry with specific knowledge in the areas of geochemistry, hydrochemistry and mineralogy. I have published on such topics as mineral chemistry, hydrochemistry and biogeochemistry.

 

I have 41 years of experience, and specialize in the field of mineralogy with specific knowledge in the areas of geology, environmental geology and earth and life history. I have published on such topics as the origin of ore deposits and other minerals, the nature of archaeological artifacts.

 

I have 20 years of experience and specialize in the field of climate change, with specific knowledge of environmental geochemistry, atmospheric changes and Earth-system processes. I have published on such topics as environmental analysis, climate change and mass extinction events.

I have 43 years of experience, and specialize in the field of geochemistry with specific knowledge in the areas of water quality, contaminants and mine wastes. I have published on such topics as surface and groundwater chemistry, pollutants and mine wastes. I have served in leadership roles in various scientific organizations and as a consultant for various federal agencies. I wrote the most widely-used textbook on the chemistry of surface and groundwaters.

 

I have 18 years of experience, and specialize in the field of geochemistry with specific knowledge in the areas of stable isotopes, ore deposits and contaminant transport processes. I have published on such topics as the transport of crustal fluids, the development of stable and radiogenic isotope techniques for mineral exploration and mixing processes in groundwaters in aquifers. I have an active research program that applies stable isotopic techniques to understand fluid transport processes in the earth’s crust.

 

I have 15 years of experience in the field of energy, with specific knowledge of marine geology, geochemistry and environmental impact. I have published on such topics as natural seepage of oil and gas, gas release from gas hydrate reservoirs and biogeochemistry of hydrocarbon seepage. I have testified on seafloor installations, oil and gas exploration, and offshore operations.

 

I have 30 years of experience, and specialize in the field of sedimentology and geochemistry with specific knowledge in the areas of oil and gas reservoirs, and environmental geochemistry.

 

I have 32 years of experience in the field of aqueous geochemistry, with specific knowledge in the areas of fluid-rock reactions, aqueous geochemistry, and hydrogeology. I have published on such topics as mineral solubilities, reaction rates between fluids and minerals and adsorbtion of metals to mineral surfaces.

 

I have 43 years of experience, and specialize in the field of teaching and consulting with specific knowledge in the areas of uranium, precious metals and fluid chemistry. I have published on such topics as precious metal deposit geology and geochemistry, uranium geochemistry and geology and environmental geochemistry of metal deposits and coal.

 

I have 26 years of experience and specialize in the field of geochemistry, with specific knowledge of isotopes, groundwater and radioactivity. I have published on such topics as chlorinated solvents, perchlorate and radium. I have a U.S. patent on a method for isotopic analysis of chlorinated solvents.

 

I have 40 years of experience in the field of geology with specific knowledge in the areas of igneous petrology, geochemistry and geochemical analysis. I have published on such topics as the origin and significance of the Cameroon line, basaltic magmatism in the western USA, and the origin of the Ontong Java plateau in the western Pacific.
