About

Dr. Elizabeth Turner

Professor of Earth Sciences

At LU since 2005; Research Scientist, Canada-Nunavut Geoscience Office (Iqaluit; 2001-2005); Post-doctoral fellowships (Univ of Chicago; Univ of Alberta; 2000-2001); PhD (Queen's; 1999); BSc Geology (University of Toronto; 1991); BA Languages (University of Toronto; 1988); University of Toronto Schools

Dr. Turner is a field-based geologist with 30 years of research experience in remote parts of Canada's northern territories. Specialisation in dynamics of Proterozoic and Paleozoic carbonate and shale basins, including the information they encode about Earth's deep-time geochemical, tectonic, and paleobiological evolution, and their ore-deposit potential.

Research focus is on tectononstratigraphic analysis and economic potential of Proterozoic to lower Paleozoic sedimentary basins, including paleobiological, geochemical, paleoenvironmental, sedimentological, and diagenetic evolution in deep time spanning over 1 billion years of Earth history.

Current projects in:

  • ​Geological evolution of Mesoproterozoic, Neoproterozoic, and Paleozoic basins in northern Canada (NU, NWT)
  • Sedimentary-rock-hosted ore districts & deposits (DRCongo; northern Canada)
  • Carbonate facies & stratigraphy
  • Carbonate & siliciclastic diagenesis
  • Microbial reef geochemistry & evolution
  • Early evolution of eukaryotes
