MEI Online Update #426 - the one where our subscriber list disappears

Hello Everyone,

Well, we've had a bit of a disaster here. Our subscriber list host, Topica, seems to have disappeared from the face of the internet with no warning. This means that we did not have time to retrieve our most current subscriber list from their servers.

Rather than risk spamming people who are on our old list, we have taken the decision to build up our subscriber list from scratch. If you wish to be added/re-added to the list, please email amanda@min-eng.com with the subject line: email list.

Whilst we build our list back up, the newsletter will be posted on the MEI Blog, MEI's LinkedIn page and anywhere else I can find for it!

For those of you reading who weren't subscribers, MEI Online Update is produced every 2 weeks and contains links to every new item added to MEI Online since the last issue - apart from jobs, which are listed in a separate email.

And in other news, we've picked up a few new sponsors. Clariant are sponsoring Flotation '19 for the 3rd time, and bring the number of sponsors of this event to 12.

We have two new sponsors for Physical Separation '19: Steinert are sponsoring for the 3rd time and Wolf Minerals are sponsoring for the first time.

Wolf Minerals will also be laying on a post-conference trip to their Drakelands Mine - we'll have more information on that for you shortly.
