Welcome to the homepage for Dr. Aaron Noble's research group. Our mission is to combine state-of-the art research with quality teaching in a manner that produces measurable changes to the way minerals are produced. To support this mission, our team is actively engaged in several areas of research, including process circuit design, mine pollution control, and even asteroid characterization.
