Proceedings of the 37th Forum on the
Geology of Industrial Minerals held at the Victoria Conference Centre from
May 23 -25, 2001, published 2004, 334 pages.
The Forum on the Geology of Industrial Minerals has a long
tradition. It was initiated by the late Professor Robert Bates of the Ohio
State University and has been held on an annual basis for the last 37 years.
Thirty-one meetings have been held in the USA, one in Bath, England, and
five in Canada including the 37th Forum, here in Victoria.
The technical sessions focused on aggregates and
transportation; value-added industrial minerals; diamonds in Canada;
dimension stone; magnesite, magnesia, and magnesium metal; and exploration
for and evaluation of industrial mineral deposits. There were 48 oral
presentations and over 40 poster displays.
