Dr Jinxiang Huang is a geoscientist with more than 15 years of experience spanning academic research, mineral exploration and emerging natural hydrogen exploration. She is currently Director and Principal Geologist at Bifrost Resources, a Perth-based junior exploration company focused on identifying and advancing natural hydrogen opportunities.
Jinxiang spent more than a decade at Macquarie University working with the internationally recognised GEMOC ARC National Key Centre and the ARC Centre of Excellence for Core to Crust Fluid Systems. Her research focused on the composition, evolution and architecture of the continental lithosphere, integrating mantle petrology, geochemistry, particularly isotopic geochemistry, and geophysics.
Following her academic career, Jinxiang transitioned into industry, gaining hands-on exploration experience before joining LithoAtlas Geoscience, where she works on integrating multidisciplinary geological, geochemical and geophysical datasets to understand lithospheric architecture and support regional-scale exploration targeting.
In recent years, Jinxiang has developed a particular focus on natural hydrogen and helium exploration, including hydrogen generation mechanisms, geological hydrogen systems, exploration methodologies, project screening and global industry developments. Her work bridges fundamental geoscience with practical exploration concepts.
