The Argyle Diamond Deposit – From Discovery to Mine Closure

The Australian Institute of Geoscientists is seeking expressions of interest from geologists and other professionals who may be interested in documenting their personal experiences at the Argyle diamond deposit or with the Kimberley diamond search of the 70s and 80s leading up to its discovery.

The submissions (including photographs) will be compiled into a compendium and published by the AIG and sold through the AIG bookshop.

This follows a compilation of personal experiences at the Ok Tedi copper-gold deposit in Papua New Guinea which has since been published by the AIG. It is envisaged that the 50th Anniversary Commemorative Volume of the Discovery of the Mt Fubilan Copper-Gold Porphyry, Ok Tedi, Papua New Guinea will serve as a template and guide for prospective authors for the proposed Argyle volume.

Expressions of interest should be emailed to Mike Erceg (michael.erceg219@gmail.com), Andrew Waltho (andrewwaltho@me.com) or Grant Boxer (boxerg@iinet.net.au)
