SUMMARY:7th Conference on the Geology of Diamond Deposits in Brazil
DESCRIPTION:The 7th Brazilian Conference on the Geology of Diamonds to be held in Salvador\, Bahia is attracting speakers and delegates from around the world. The event\, which focuses on the diamond producing industry\, will highlight the diamond potential of Brazil\, its geology\, and new discoveries and developments in the sector.  The conference will be held at the Deville Hotel and Conference Centre from November 4th to 7th\, 2018.\nPaul Zimnisky\, a diamond analyst and one of the principal names in the international industry\, will be the keynote speaker and will give delegates his views on the current state of the natural diamond industry\, and where he sees the industry heading in the future. Dr. Barbara Scott-Smith\, a world-renown kimberlite specialist will provide delegates with insight into a new standardized kimberlite terminology that is now being used at most producing diamond mines in the world. There will also be presentations on the Braúna diamond mine of Lipari Mineração Ltda.\, Brazil’s largest diamond producer and the first commercial mine in South America which was developed on a kimberlite deposit.\nKen Johnson\, President of Lipari and the President of the conference organizing committee said that “the purpose of this conference is to highlight the immense diamond potential of Brazil. Prior to the discovery of diamonds in South Africa in 1867\, Brazil was the world’s largest diamond producer for almost 150 years. All of the historical production was derived from alluvial deposits\, despite the fact that there are now over 1\,340 kimberlites discovered. Our Braúna mine is the first kimberlite deposit to be put into commercial production\, with an annual production of approximately 230\,000 carats per year.  Following the success of Lipari’s Braúna development\, diamond explorers and producers are now starting to look at Brazil as a prospective area for diamond exploration. There is an industry waiting to be developed here\, it just needs investment and know-how. This will be the focus of this year’s conference”. \nFor more information\, visit the conference website at www.simposiododiamantebahia.com.br/en/.

SUMMARY:The Basics of Geology\, Mining\, & Mineral Processing
DESCRIPTION:This course is intended for people who are interested in a broad overview of how the mining business works from a technical perspective. Aspects of Geology\, Mining and Mineral Processing will be addressed in the context of the discovery\, development and production of mineral deposits. For people with no technical background in geology or mining\, the course will provide a basic introduction of the critical technical factors impacting on the success of mining companies. For those with some technical expertise\, the course will serve as a refresher and as a way to integrate their specific knowledge into the broader technical aspects of the mining sector.

SUMMARY:7th Conference on the Geology of Diamond Deposits in Brazil
DESCRIPTION:The 7th Conference on the Geology of Diamond Deposits in Brazil will be held in Salvador\, Bahia between the 4th and 7th November\, 2018. The conference will be hosted at the Hotel Deville Conference Centre\, Salvador.\nIt is particularly appropriate that the 7th Conference will be hosted in the State of Bahia\, which is the largest producer of diamonds in Brazil\, and the location of the first commercial diamond mine in South America\, which was developed on a kimberlite deposit\, the primary source rock of diamond. This year’s conference also marks the 25th year since the first conference\, which was held in the State of Mato Grosso in 1993. The objective of this year’s conference is to highlight the diamond potential of Brazil\, and stimulate investment in exploration and development in the sector.\nThe conference will follow four main themes during the technical sessions which will: i) focus on the significant diamond potential of Brazil\, ii) highlight new technologies and expertise that can positively impact producers and explorers in Brazil\, iii) provide expert opinions on the diamond market and insights into how producers can optimize sales\, and iv) offer presentations on various avenues that are available to finance diamond exploration and development projects in Brazil.\nThe conference will be followed by a field trip to the Braúna diamond mine\, Brazil’s largest diamond producer and the first commercial diamond mine developed on a kimberlite deposit in South America.\nA pre-conference short course\, offered by the Institute of Geosciences of the Federal University of Bahia (IGEO) and the Companhia Baiana de Pesquisa Mineral (CBPM) will also be available to interested delegates\, to be held prior to the conference.\nThe Organizing Committee is pleased to invite submissions for oral and poster presentations that align with the four principal themes of the technical sessions. Delegates interested in submitting an oral or poster presentation at the Conference are required to Submit an Abstract of the presentation topic.
