Roundup 2020, Vancouver Convention Centre East, January 20-23

Smithers Exploration Group will have a strong presence at AME’s Roundup 2020 talking about the rocks of the north.

Monday January 20 and Tuesday January 21:  SEG’s regional table in the concourse outside the technical presentations is a must see. Geologists with decades of experience in northern BC have developed a NEW metallogenic model for Laramide Age deposits in Central BC! Peter Ogryzlo will be at the SEG table with a poster demonstrating the potential of Central BC.  Join him on Monday and Tuesday.

Some of SEG’s collection of Cordilleran rock suites are making the trip south from their home in SEG’s Rock Room, thanks to Bandstra Transportation.  Check out the suites and learn more about how you can use the collection in preparation for the 2020 field season.

While you're at the table get all the details on Rock Talk 2020 in Smithers February 19, 20 and 21, including the new tectonomagmatic structural insights of the Skeena Arch with Tom Richards, a workshop on the evolution on Huckleberry Mine and the project updates from greenfields to advanced stage to operating mines. See the Rock Talk preliminary program below.

And of course the annual SEG directory will be available at the SEG table, BC Night and the publication table near registration.

Special thanks to Bandstra Transportation for their continuing support moving SEG and its rocks from Smithers to Vancouver.
