From the MEI Archives #11- Groot Constantia 2002

This week's photos were taken during MEI's 1st Pyrometallurgy conference in Cape Town in 2002. The conference dinner was held at the Groot Constantia wine estate, South Africa's oldest wine farm, situated at the foot of Table Mountain. Second right in the top picture is Jacques Eksteen, who has attended all three of our pyrometallurgy conferences and is acting as consultant to the 4th, Pyromet '12, which will be held in Falmouth in June. He will also present the keynote lecture at this event.
