2001 Gordon Research Conference on the Geochemistry of Ore-Forming Metal Deposits

戈登研究会议是解决金属矿床地球化学问题的主要会议之一。该会议为来自学术界、政府和工业界的不同经验水平的研究人员提供了一个国际论坛，讨论有关金属在自然环境中运输和沉积的化学问题。我们为下次会议选择的主题是“矿床的形成、改造和保存”。我们选择这一主题是为了关注过程，而不是金属或矿床类型，并强调涉及矿石形成、矿床环境和由此产生的矿石经济加工的众多因素之间的联系。我们努力使这次会议跨学科，邀请了包括低温地球化学、生物地球化学、气候变化、构造学、构造学、地质年代学和数值模拟在内的各个领域的专家。这些学科中的每一个都可以为理解金属是如何在地壳中运输和积累的提供见解和信息。本提案的资助将为初级科学家（包括学生、博士后研究员和助理教授）参加会议提供部分支持，并将为他们提供一个独特的机会，在友好和非正式的环境中与公认的专家会面和互动。初级科学家参加这次会议很重要，因为他们为科学带来了新的和创新的想法，因为他们对该领域的未来研究负责。参加会议将使他们有机会向更资深的科学家学习并与之互动，并与其他研究人员开始合作项目。这些经验无疑会对他们未来的生产力产生积极的影响。召集人：Jean Cline， Jeff Hedenquist和John thompson 2001年8月19-24日，新罕布什尔州Proctor学院

Cline & StormEAR-0087477This Gordon Research Conference is one of the premier conferences that addresses the geochemistry of metallic ore deposits. The meeting serves as an international forum for researchers with differing levels of experience from academia, government, and industry to discuss issues concerning the chemistry of metal transportation and deposition in the natural environment. The theme that we have selected for the next conference is "The formation, modification and preservation of ore deposits." We have selected this theme to focus on process, rather than metal or ore-deposit type, and to highlight the linkages among the numerous factors involved in ore formation, deposit environment, and the resultant economic processing of ore. We have endeavored to make this meeting interdisciplinary by inviting speakers who are experts in a variety of fields including low-temperature geochemistry, biogeochemistry, climate change, tectonics, structure, geochronology, and numerical modeling. Each of these disciplines can bring insight and information to the understanding of how metals are transported and accumulated in and at Earth's crust. Funding of this proposal will provide partial support for junior level scientists including students, post-doctorate fellows, and assistant professors to attend the meeting, and will provide them with a unique opportunity to meet and interact with recognized experts in a friendly and informal environment. The attendance of junior-level scientists at this meeting is important because they bring new and innovative ideas to the science, and because they are responsible for future research in this field. Attendance at the conference will provide them with the opportunity to learn from and interact with more senior scientists, and to begin collaborative projects with other researchers. These experiences will undoubtedly have a positive impact on their future productivity. Convenors: Jean Cline, Jeff Hedenquist, and John ThompsonAugust 19-24, 2001, Proctor Academy, New Hampshire
