Professor Murray Hitzman of UCD and iCRAG is retiring soon and “MurrayFest” will be a way to show gratitude for his teaching and mentoring over many years and to demonstrate the impact he has had and the contribution that he has made to the mineral exploration and mining industry in Ireland during his career.
The event is scheduled for 6th and 7th December at UCD and registrations are now open for this conference and social event.
In keeping with the theme of the event as the Next Generation in Economic Geology, all students are invited to register using the STUDENT rate (€50), whereas the PROFESSIONAL registration is €150.
These fees directly support the event for the room hire, catering, and AV costs. If your employer intends on SPONSORING a portion of this event, please let the organisers know and registration for attendees will be included in that contribution.
