Dear All,
The Department of Geology’s SEG Student Chapter at the University of Leicester will be holding a day event on Saturday 23rd November 2013.
UoL’s SEG Masterclass with Professor Nicholas T. Arndt (Regional Vice President Lecturer of the SEG 2013)
‘Magmatic ore deposits and the socio-economic effects of mining’
We are very lucky to have Professor Nicholas T. Arndt visit and provide a fantastic opportunity for all those interested in magmatic or deposits, mineral exploration and economic geology.
We would like to invite anyone of interest from both academia and industry to our day event where you will have the opportunity to see and speak to Nick, Departmental Staff, industry and students from: University of Leicester, Leeds, Cardiff, Imperial College London and Brighton University. The day is scheduled by Nick into four sessions titled below:
Registration – 9:30am
Start – 10:00am
· An Introduction to Economic Geology
· Magmatic Ore Deposits - hand and thin section sample inspections from deposits
· Petrological and Physical Processes Controlling Magma Flow and Ore Deposits
· A debate on the "Social License to Mine"
Finish: c. 5:00pm
We also invite you to join us all at the pub and for a curry (please let us know).
Please email your interest any other queries you may have about the event to [log in to unmask]
We would like to hear from you ASAP with requests to attend the event.
Many thanks,
University of Leicesters’ SEG Student Chapter 2013/2014
Nick was awarded his Ph.D. from the University of Toronto in 1975 and is a master in the field of magmatic ore deposits. After a year in exploration with an Australian mineral company Nick took on academic positions in various universities across the globe, including the United States, Canada, Australia and Germany before taking a professorship at Université de Rennes 1, France, in 1990. Following his career in France, he moved to the Université de Grenoble in 1988. His interests include petrology and geochemistry of mafic and ultramafic rocks, magmatic ore deposits and the environment of early-Earth.
