International Mining History Congress 2006
Submissions are invited from those interested in organizing the 7th
International Mining History Congress, scheduled for 2006.
The International Committee will vet all applications and the successful
applicant will be chosen on merit. Interested parties should be aware of
the need to propose a location that provides relatively easy access for
International participants, that provides adequate accommodation, and that
has a venue or venues suitable for a scholarly meeting. The Committee
especially welcomes proposals from those close to a historically significant
mining locality. The successful proposal will likely be one that has the
backing of local authorities and/or an institution, as well as coming from a
person or group that has prior experience in conference organising or from
those who can call on people with the necessary expertise and skills to
conduct a successful meeting. Applicants who believe that they can meet
these criteria will be sent a document containing more comprehensive
guidelines upon receipt of the submission.
Applications should be sent to reach the Secretary of the IMHC no later than
31st January 2004.
