Developed by Mines researchers, HALT-PFAS is widely regarded as one of most promising solutions for tackling “forever chemicals."

“It proved to be a seven-year journey to isolate the first molecule containing californium(2+), but we were rewarded with chemical and physical properties that had not been anticipated,” Thomas Albrecht-Schönzart said.

Jessica Smith, professor of engineering, design and society, has spent years getting to know engineers in the field, learning about how they thought about their work in the broader context of their community and the planet.

Civil and environmental engineering researchers at Colorado School of Mines have developed a mobile system for reclaiming the cyanide used in gold processing by small-scale and artisanal miners in Peru.

“As scientists, we need to lead the way for society to have a better understanding of how climate change is affecting our water resources," said Adrienne Marshall, assistant professor of geology and geological engineering at Mines.

Christopher Higgins, University Distinguished Professor in Civil and Environmental Engineering at Colorado School of Mines, was honored for his research on poly- and perfluoroalkyl substances, also

U.S. Naval War College, University of Texas and Colorado School of Mines have been selected to research critical minerals, battery technology, and reducing dependence on hostile suppliers in the clean

"There are places on Earth that we still haven’t explored,” said Matthew Siegfried, assistant professor of geophysics at Colorado School of Mines and a lead author of the paper, published March 9 in Geology. “We have now one sample trying to understand an environment that is one and a half times the size of the continental United States."

The Colorado Business Council for the Arts recognized the Mines group with its Arts & Business Partnership Award for their work to design and fabricate a custom set of instruments for the Denver-based music performance group.

Low-sulfidation epithermal deposits are one of the most important sources of gold in the United States.
