The MEI Award to an outstanding young person

I met many interesting people at last week’s SME Annual Meeting in Denver. It was particularly good to meet, for the first time, Randy Zahn, of FLSmidth, USA, and to give him the good news that he is the recipient of the 2012 MEI Young Person’s Award. His very impressive citation is on MEI Online.

This is the second time that the award has been made. Last year the winner was Peter Amelunxen.

Randy will be presented with the award at Physical Separation ’13 in Falmouth in June.

A call for nominations for the 2013 award will be made in December, so now is a good time to start thinking of nominating an outstanding young person who has made a significant contribution to mineral processing.
