Episode Ep26 - Chromium occurrence in a nickel laterite mining area in Palawan
Ms. Ruth Esther Delina-Agillon is a PhD student specializing in environmental mineralogy and geochemistry at the Interface Geochemistry section of the GFZ German Research Centre for Geosciences. She obtained her MSc in Geology from the University of the Philippines Diliman, where she also served as an instructor. Her passion for teaching and research led her to extend her MSc work on Philippine nickel mining areas through the DAAD German Academic Exchange Service Doctoral Research Grant. The main goal of her PhD research is to trace the fate of potentially toxic metals, such as chromium, in these mining areas for water quality management.
