An EGRU conference with a session in honour of Dr Roger Taylor
24 – 28 June 2019 Tinaroo Lake Resort, Tinaroo, Atherton Tablelands, north Queensland, Australia
Regardless of what they’re called, governments are talking strategies to meet future demand, manufacturers are looking to identify future supplies, and geologists are leading the way in identifying the style, setting, and controls on mineralisation, and defining new approaches to exploration.
This timely EGRU conference on Sn-W-Critical Metals will give researchers and industry professionals a unique opportunity to hear international and Australian presenters discuss the latest research and concepts about the geology, mineralisation, and exploration for these increasingly important metals.
The preliminary program includes presentations on:
Registration for the conference is now open. Information regarding delegate registration, the field trip and the accommodation options is available on our conference website
The program will feature presentations from world-class researchers in the field, including:
Prof. Rolf Romer (GFZ, Potsdam, Germany)
Influence of protolith chemistry on the regional distribution of Phanerozoic magmatic tin deposits.
Exogenic control on the distribution of endogenic Sn-W-Ta, Au, and U mineralization in the Appalachians and the Variscides
