Follow on Google News | Distinguished Speaker Series: Dr. Richard TosdalThe SE Europe Geoscience Foundation ("SEEGF") is pleased to announce that Dr Dick Tosdal will be giving a series of lectures as part of the SEEGF Distinguished Speaker Series in May 2009 in Sofa (Bulgaria), Belgrade (Serbia) and Stip (Maceondia).
By: SE Europe Geoscience Foundation FULL PRESS RELEASE: http://www.see- Dr. Tosdal will be giving three presentations: • Tectonic transitions in the porphyry-epithermal environment • Footprints of carbonate rock hosted polymetallic deposits in central Peru • Building the geologic environment of Carlin-type Au deposits in northern Nevada These lectuires are very relevant to the region. The first topic needs no introdcution. The second talk is especially relevent given the large carbonate hosted deposits of Tertiary age present in Macedonia and Serbia and the recent anncouncement by EurOmax Resources Limtied of wide copper-gold drill hole intercepts south of Novi Pazaar in Serbia. The recent discovery of “Carlin Style” mineralisation along the western side of the Bor Volcanic Complex by Dundee ensures that the third presentation in an extended format will be most interesting. Preliminary Speaking Schedule Monday, 4th May: Sofia, Bulgaria Lectures Tuesday, 5th May: Belgrade, Serbia Lectures Thursday 7th May: Stip, Macedonia Lectures For more information please go here. Dr. Richard Tosdal Richard Tosdal received an A.B. degree from the University of California at Santa Barbara, a M.Sc. degree from Queen's University, and a Ph.D. degree from the University of California at Santa Barbara. Between 1978 and 1999, Dr. Tosdal worked for the U.S. Geological Survey and as an independent geologist for the mining industry. From 1999 through 2008, he was the Director of the Mineral Deposit Research Unit at the University of British Columbia where he supervised collaborative industry-university research projects on 5 continents investigating intrusion-related Au deposit, Carlin-type sedimentary rock-hosted deposits, porphyry and epithermal systems, VMS deposits, carbonate-hosted polymetallic deposits, integration of geology and geophysical inversion, and volcanology of kimberlite. In 2009, he became an independent geologist based in the eastern United States from where he consults with the minerals industry around the world. Dr. Tosdal also continues an affiliation with the Mineral Deposit Research Unit through on-going collaborative industry-university research. He has worked on geologic, tectonic, and metallogenic problems in the Cordilleras and Cratons of North and South America, Africa, Asia, and Australia. We are delighted to host Dr Tosdal in SE Europe during May. Registration information will be posted shortly on the SEEGF website: http://www.see- On Behalf of SE Europe Geoscience Foundation John C. Menzies Chairman # # # We are a not-for-profit Foundation formed and sponsored by the mining and exploration industry in SE Europe. The Foundation is a reflection of our commitment to contribute to the education of geoscientists in the region so that our industry may better serve our communities. It is a commitment by the participating organizations to achieve World best practice in all aspects of our businesses and to minimize or eliminate our environmental impacts. The purpose of the Foundation is to enhance education and research in the geological sciences in SE Europe. The geosciences are a broad field of study having impact on our daily lives. It is the study of many aspects of the environment in which we live and work and the mineral resources we remove from the earth End
