Mineral Deposits and Ore Forming Processes

The notifications to presenting authors confirming their specific date and time of presentation will be communicated the 20 August 2016.

Second Draft Preliminary programme is being updated per theme as the SPC signs them off.

The detailed draft day by day programme for each theme is being announced as it is being collated. These are still preliminary and will be finalised by the 20 August.

As this is the Second draft, please note that where there are abstract presenters not yet registered, these have now been removed from the programme.
Once removed, you will not be included in the abstracts or the programme. If your co-author is presenting, please contact the secretariat urgently to confirm and advise so that your paper can be moved to the correct presenter. Email 35igc@allevents.co.za if you have any queries or if you have in the interim managed to secure finances and registered.

Mineral Deposits and Ore Forming Processes

The concentration of metals in the Earth’s crust is a complex and diverse process. The recognition of such processes and their distribution in space and time is fundamental to sustainable global resource management. This theme presents an opportunity to provide updates on the understanding of ore genesis and its importance to the search for new mineral resources.
