Dear fellow petrologists,
I forward to the list this message from the organizers of the next IMA
meeting, to be held in Lyon next July. Let's make it also a lively
petrological event! Note that the International Eclogite Conference is
likely to be held a few days earlier, in the same city.
Kind regards
Christian

Dear Colleagues,
Next year we are organizing the 23rd General meeting of the
International Mineralogy Association in Lyon, in July 18-22, 2022, with
the overarching theme "Mineralogy and Space". 2022 is also the Year of
Mineralogy, under the patronage of the International Year of Basic
Science for Sustainable Development, which has been approved by UNESCO..
As part of its efforts to make a general meeting that is as broad and
inclusive as possible, IMA2022 welcomes scientific proposals within but
not limited to the main themes of the conference:
* Mineral systematics, regrouping, for example, new minerals and
classification of minerals, mineral evolution, databases and data
mining;
* Applied, ore, and industrial mineralogy, covering sessions about
mineral deposits of economic interest or ore minerals;
* Mineralogy and petrology, grouping general aspects of mineralogy and
its relation to petrological studies;
* Extraterrestrial mineralogy, covering sessions about minerals on other
bodies of the solar system and beyond, planetary exploration, and space
missions;
* Planetary interiors, regrouping sessions about the constituents of
planets, and behaviour of minerals at extreme conditions of pressures
and temperature ;
* Environmental mineralogy, biomineralogy;
* The dynamical world of minerals, covering sessions about mineral
reactions, physical and chemical properties of minerals and of rocks,
various spectroscopies, and methods of investigation of minerals.
We also welcome submission for sessions related to all general and
traditional aspects of mineralogy, including thermodynamics,
crystallography, teaching mineralogy, gemology, nanominerals, glasses
and melts, etc.
As usual, each session proposal will need to include a concise
description of the scientific topic that presents enough arguments to
show its timeliness and relevance to the field of mineralogy. The
proposals will be focused on science and/or science policy. The
Scientific Committee will judge all sessions proposals and will accept
or reject each session proposal. The deadline for session submission is
October 31st.
I am writing you to kindly invite you all to Lyon, France, and also to
ask and suggest you to organize a special session at this IMA2022
meeting.
Hope this sounds as exciting to you as it sounds to me !
The link to the meeting is here:

and the link for the submission is here:
https://www.ima2022.fr/add-a-submission
We really think it is important to keep active all aspects of IMA, and
sessions at the general meeting are a great way for achieving this.
Moreover we really hope and count on a "real" meeting, where we can all
find each other again.
Let me know if you need any help for this, and we are looking forward to
seeing you in Lyon next summer.
With my best wishes,
Razvan
on behalf of the organizers (Razvan Caracas, Herve Cardon, Cathy
Quantin-Nataf) and Sylvie Demouchy (for the IMA council)
