Journal Article
Butt, N. A., Khan, M. Y., Khattak, S. A., Jeffery, A. J., & Pringle, J. K. (2025). Multi-disciplinary investigation for detection, characterisation and monitoring of contamination from a solid waste illegal dumpsite, Peshawar, NW Pakistan. Geomatics, Natural Hazards and Risk, 16(1), 1-24. https://doi.org/10.1080/19475705.2025.2485338

Leaching of organic and inorganic contaminants from illegal solid waste dumpsites negatively affects local environments, with hazards to human health in local communities. To detect, characterize and monitor contaminant pollutants, conventional site...

Applications of geoforensic trace evidence (2024)
Journal Article
Jeffery, A. J., Pirrie, D., Pringle, J. K., Ruffell, A., & Stimpson, I. G. (2024). Applications of geoforensic trace evidence. Geology Today, 40(4), 139-145. https://doi.org/10.1111/gto.12484

Geoforensic trace evidence studies can be crucial for law enforcement and civil/criminal prosecution and defence, to test potential links between suspect(s), crime scenes or forensic object(s). In addition, trace geological evidence can be used to id... Read More about Applications of geoforensic trace evidence.

From alchemy to modern mineralogy: dating mineral collections via chemical notation (2022)
Journal Article
Cooke, J. C., & Jeffery, A. J. (2022). From alchemy to modern mineralogy: dating mineral collections via chemical notation. Geology Today, 38(2), 58-64. https://doi.org/10.1111/gto.12382

Mineral specimens found in historical collections often include specimen labels, which may provide vital information on the nature, chemistry and origin of the material. However, the evolution of chemical notation, particularly during the eighteenth... Read More about From alchemy to modern mineralogy: dating mineral collections via chemical notation.
