SUMMARY:Blockchain technology for the mining industry
DESCRIPTION:Blockchain technology for the mining industry:  What is blockchain\, where it works for us now and what is the bright and not-too-distant future for all mining industry stakeholders. \nTanya Matveeva will be presenting Blockchain technology for the mining industry: what is blockchain\, where it works for us now and what is the bright and not-too-distant future for all mining industry stakeholders.  This will be a joint presentation of MinSouth and Women In Mining – UK. \n \nIn this presentation\, she will give a brief explanation of the inner workings of blockchain technology\, history of its adoption in various spheres of our lives so far\, both in finance and blockchain for enterprise – two very different applications\, review where blockchain is already working for mining industry players and where we should be looking to learn what can and should be done soon.This promises to be an interesting lecture. \nRegistration can be done at this Link. \n\nTanya is an experienced exploration geologist focussed on connecting mining industry with developers of blockchain technology. Interested in all things disruptive to make mining better. \nStarted with BHP Minerals exploration group in Russia\, Kazakhstan and Australia\, then in Canada and later in several African countries. \nWorked for major and junior mining companies\, Alberta geological survey\, mining consultancies\, currently leading her own consultancy firm\, KAMNI Chain Ltd.\, based in Canterbury\, Kent\, UK. \nWork with large datasets in mineral exploration taught her respect for good data management practices.  \nSince learning about blockchain technology she realised the transformational potential of blockchain and now focus my work on developing applications of blockchain in mining space.

SUMMARY:MinSouth Snap - Brumadinho tailings dam collapse: revealing ground deformation precursors using satellite InSAR
DESCRIPTION:Doctor Stephen Grebby will be presenting this topic virtually at a MinSouth Snap on the 18th of May 2021 from 13:00-14:00 BST. \nDr  Grebby is an Assistant Professor in Earth Observation in the Department of Chemical and Environmental Engineering at the University of Nottingham. He has a PhD in Geological Remote Sensing and his research interests are primarily in the development of airborne and satellite remote sensing techniques for application to geological mapping\, natural resources exploration\, and the mapping and monitoring of geohazards. Prior to joining the University of Nottingham\, he worked for the British Geological Survey as a Remote Sensing Geoscientist for 5 years \n \nIf interested\, it is free to attend.  For registration\, click this Link

SUMMARY:Sundowner
DESCRIPTION:Video conference is done through Wonder.  As their web page states: \n“Wonder is a space where you can connect to others in a more spontaneous and fluid way. You move around freely between groups. It’s fun\, creative and energizing. We call this concept fluid togetherness\, we think it’s the future of how people will connect online in future and we’re incredibly excited about it. The best thing is that Wonder is going to be a the core of it.” \nThere are separate rooms available at this space for Students\, Geologists\, Mining Engineers and Metallurgists.  Anyone can go into whichever room. \nHere is the link: \nSundowners\n
