2016 Geochemistry of Mineral Deposits GRC

2016年戈登矿床地球化学研究会议(GRC)将汇聚一批不同的科学家，他们专注于确保编织到现代社会结构中的金属的可持续供应。与会者包括来自学术界、各政府机构和实验室以及采矿和地热行业的代表，他们为工作组带来了关于迫切需要实际解决的问题的经验和专门知识。这次会议是具有不同经验的国际研究人员聚集和讨论有关自然环境中金属运输和沉积的地球化学问题的主要场所之一。这项提议将允许科学家介绍研究，并与来自世界各地的科学家接触，这些科学家专注于为我们日益增长的社会研究矿石矿物的进化和可持续性。GRC是一个小型会议，最多有180人参加，鼓励所有参与者积极参与讨论。所有与会者一起用餐，会议的形式为在研究领域和新方法的应用方面与具有不同观点的科学家交流提供了一个理想的机会。对于初出茅庐的研究人员来说，这是一个理想的场所，可以与学术界和工业界的资深成员互动，并就他们的想法获得反馈。GRC将讨论的主题包括高分辨率勘探战略、岩浆和热液过程、活跃的热液系统、地幔楔形和氧化还原过程中的交代和硫循环、记录在锆石中的成矿系统的化学特征、各种规模的成矿动力学过程、气候变化与风化和表生矿床形成的关系、沉积铜和铀矿床中的流体流动、稀土元素系统，以及地球微生物在成矿系统中的作用。

The 2016 Geochemistry of Mineral Deposits Gordon Research Conference (GRC) will bring together a diverse group of scientists who are focused on ensuring a sustainable supply of metals that are woven into the fabric of modern society. Participants include representatives from academia and various government agencies and laboratories, as well as from the mining and geothermal industries, who bring to the group their experience and expertise concerning immediate problems requiring practical solutions. The conference serves as one of the premier venues for international researchers with differing levels of experience to gather and discuss issues concerning the geochemistry of metal transportation and deposition in the natural environment. This proposal will allow scientists to present research and engage with scientists from around the world who are focused on the evolution and sustainability of ore minerals for our growing society. The GRC is a small meeting, with a maximum of 180 participants, and all participants are encouraged to actively participate in the discussions. All participants share meals together and the format of the meeting provides an ideal opportunity to interact with scientists with different perspectives in the field of research and also on applications of new methods. This is an ideal venue for early-career researchers to interact with senior members of the academic and industrial communities and to get feedback on their ideas. Topics to be discussed at the GRC will include high-resolution exploration strategies, magmatic and hydrothermal processes, active hydrothermal systems, metasomatism and sulfur cycling in the mantle wedge and redox processes, chemical signatures of mineralizing systems recorded in zircon, dynamic processes involved in ore genesis at a variety of scales, the relationship between climate change and weathering and formation of supergene deposits, fluid flow in sedimentary copper and uranium deposits, and rare earth element systems, and the role of geomicrobiology in mineralizing systems.
