Publications Webinar: Geology of the World's Major Gold Deposits and Provinces

Gold is unique because it is the only economically important metal or major by-product from at least 11 different deposit types. The metal itself accounts for roughly half of the world's nonferrous exploration activity, equating to corporate expenditure on the order of US$5 billion annually. It also holds a unique and fascinating position as a commodity that demands a great deal of collaborative research and exploration attention.
For these reasons, the previous SEG Publications Board chairs, Stuart Simmons and Rich Goldfarb, promoted the idea of a volume focused on basic geologic descriptions of the world's major gold deposits and provinces as a major contribution to the Society's 100th-anniversary celebrations.
This accompanying webinar on SEG Special Publication, No. 23, will further highlight these remarkable deposit types over the course of a one-hour mini-lecture series, focusing on the following deposit types:
- Introduction (Sillitoe)
- Epithermal and porphyry deposits (Simmons)
- Carlin (Robert)
- Archean orogenic and other deposits (Robert)
- Younger orogenic and other deposits (Goldfarb)
- Epilogue -- gold in solutions (Simmons)
Following these lectures, a Q&A session moderated by Halley Keevil will address important questions regarding the nature of these deposits, and a forum for discussion will be opened up to the attendees.
