Call for Sessions
Here is the list of themes the EMC organizing committee has agreed for the EMC 2024 conference (August 18-23, 2024) in Dublin, Ireland:
1. Analytical advances
2. Experimental and theoretical approaches Applied 3. Mineralogy, including but not limited to
a) CO2 capture and storage
b) Primary ore deposits
c) Critical metals
d) Energy capture and storage
e) Recycling and the circular economy
4. Archaeometry and cultural heritage
5. Environmental Mineralogy and
low-temperature geochemistry
6. Geomicrobiology and biomineralogy
7. Geochronology
8. Magmatism and igneous petrology and
geochemistry
9. Mantle mineralogy (petrology, geochemistry and
mineral physics)
10. Metamorphism
11. Mineralogical Crystallography
12. Planetary minerals and evolution with time
13. Education and outreach
Individuals are asked to provide a title for their proposed session, a brief explanatory abstract and to propose some co-convenors. Session chairs must be prepared to attend the conference in person to lead the session, but co-convenors can attend remotely (our conference will be fully hybrid). We encourage you to build strong organizing teams and to keep in mind balance in terms of gender, career experience (we are keen to include early career scientists as convenors), geography, etc. One of the key roles for session convenors is to encourage attendance from amongst their peers. Colleagues from low- and middle-income countries (www.research4life.org) will be allowed to attend the conference remotely, free of charge, so do keep them in mind.
The deadline for submission of session proposals is 31st March 2023.
Session offers should uploaded to:
MEMBERS: $30 | NON-MEMBERS: $45
Registration ends Wednesday, March 15, 2023 at 5 PM.
From the dozens of minerals that formed during the earliest days of our solar system, the count of minerals now includes 5,780 and continues to grow. Come explore how the formation of planets, geologic processes, and interactions with air, water, and even life have diversified the mineral inventory. Through the lens of mineral evolution, speakers will show how minerals clue us in to the processes that formed them.

Enthüllung von Gedenktafeln: Suess – Eine Wiener Gelehrtenfamilie
Freitag, 29. Juli 2022 ab 14.00 Uhr
Afrikanergasse 9 (1020 Wien) & Landesgerichtsstraße 12 (1010 Wien)
Der international angesehene Geologe Eduard Suess (1831-1914), ab 1857 Universitätsprofessor, von 1898 bis 1911 Präsident der Akademie der Wissenschaften, ist Stammvater einer Wiener Gelehrtenfamilie. Sein Sohn, der Geologe Franz Eduard Suess (1867-1941) war ab 1911 Professor für Geologie an der Universität Wien. Sein Enkel, Hans Eduard Suess (1909-1993), Physiker und Chemiker, war Professor für Geochemie an der University of California in San Diego, USA.
Die Kommission für Geowissenschaften der Österreichischen Akademie der Wissenschaften und die Österreichische Geologische Gesellschaft laden herzlichst zur Enthüllung der Gedenktafeln an den Wohnhäusern der Familie Suess ein. Der Veranstaltungsablauf ist dem Programm zu entnehmen:
This broad session offers the opportunity to show the studies/results on minerals and their properties (structural, physical, chemical, optical) explored by the diverse methods and approaches. The contributions on all aspects of mineralogy, including general and applied mineralogy, industrial mineralogy, analytical mineralogy, environmental mineralogy, biomineralogy, gemmology and extra-terrestrial mineralogy are welcomed. This session aims also to discuss on new minerals, nomenclature and classification.
Minerals Special Issue
