SPEAKERS

Klaus Schollenbruch Dr. Klaus Schollenbruch studied Geology at the University of Tübingen. His diploma work was about the alteration of eudialyte in the Illimaussaq intrusion in South Greenland. In 2007 he started his PhD work at the University of Frankfurt about phase transformations in Fe‐bearing spinel. This involved in situ experiments with multi anvil and diamond anvil cells. After his PhD work, which included the discovery of a new Fe‐oxide phase, he went to the German Gemmological Assiciation working as a teacher in the gemological courses and also in the laboratory of the DSEF (German Gem Lab). Klaus Schollenbruch has the degree of a FGG and EG and is a member of the examination committee of the FEEG.
