Associate Professor Justin Payne is a geoscientist affiliated with UniSA STEM at the University of South Australia. His research focuses on the intersection of geology, geochemistry, and tectonic evolution, with particular emphasis on isotopic analysis (Lu-Hf, O isotopes) and metamorphic processes. Over his career, he has contributed to understanding continental crust formation, mineral systems, and Precambrian paleoenvironments.

Payne’s work spans multiple disciplines, including:
- Petrochronology
- Isotope Geochemistry
- Metamorphic Petrology
- Sedimentary Basin Analysis
His recent publications highlight a focus on zircon isotopic studies, copper systems in southern Australia, and the tectonic significance of the Ediacara Member fossils. Payne’s research has secured funding through competitive grants such as the Australian Research Council (ARC DP200101104, ARC LP160100578) and collaborations with institutions like Curtin University and the South Australian Museum.
Payne has supervised multidisciplinary projects involving LA-ICP-MS trace element mapping, isotopic modeling, and tectonic reconstructions. While specific student names aren't listed, his work on garnet and monazite geochronology demonstrates mentorship in advanced analytical techniques.
