| 3.Magnesium Workshop Madrid 2013: An International Workshop on Processing-Microstructure-Mechanical Property of Magnesium Alloys |
| Dates | 21 May 2013 → 24 May 2013 | [ID=513848]  |
| Location | Madrid, Spain |
| Abstract | In order to significantly reduce the environmental burdens in modern society, lightweight metals and alloys play an increasingly important role because of their high specific strength and stiffness, corrosion resistance, and recyclability. Among them, magnesium (Mg), aluminum (Al), and titanium (Ti) alloys are widely utilized to manufacture structural components in aircraft, automotive, marine, electronics, and construction industries. The worldwide push toward reduced energy consumption has pushed light-weighting technologies and research efforts related to improving Mg – the lightest of all structural metals – to the forefront. |

| 25.Exploration, Resource & Mining Geology Conference 2013 |
| Dates | 21 Oct 2013 → 22 Oct 2013 | [ID=536152]  |
| Location | Cardiff, Wales, United Kingdom |
| Abstract | The Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy (The AusIMM) and The Geological Society of London are pleased to announce the Exploration, Resource and Mining Geology 2013 Conference and are calling for abstracts from intending authors for consideration in the programme.We are operating in challenging times. Despite relatively high commodity prices, there are few mining projects where an easy dollar is to be made. There are particular challenges that must be faced, including the need for cost-effective discovery strategies and methods; evaluation and extraction of often lower-grade complex (geologically and/or metallurgically) deposits; understanding time-orebody variability to achieve the optimum mine plan; and predicting grades in geologically complex deposits that can be achieved by selective mining using wide-spaced data. These and other challenges can be ameliorated by ‘getting it right from the outset’ and building orebody knowledge. |
| Topics | Exploration value drivers and strategies, Geophysical and geochemical exploration tools and techniques, Benefits of geological mapping for exploration and exploitation, Regional and orebody scale controls to mineralisation, Geological modelling and uncertainty evaluation, Drilling, sampling, assaying and QA/QC, Resource estimation, classification and reporting, Mine geology, grade control and reconciliation, Geometallurgy, New technologies, Case studies |
