Barbara and I are now back in Cape Town, preparing for tomorrow’s long flight back to London.
After last week’s Comminution ‘23 we spent six fabulous days in Botswana, a post-conference tour that we would highly recommend to those of you coming out to Cape Town for Flotation ‘23 in November. I will post more details in a couple of weeks time.
Next week we will be concentrating our attention on our June conferences, Biomining ‘23 and Sustainable Minerals ‘23, which are now only five weeks away.
Immediately after the Falmouth conferences, Barbara and I will be in Africa again, for the SAIMM Copper-Cobalt conference at Victoria Falls in Zambia, a stunning venue, and we hope to catch up with some of you there. In the meantime a reminder that abstracts for Flotation ‘23 should be submitted within the next four weeks.

Half way through the book 'Cobalt Red' which offers insight into the artisanal mining activities in the Congo. A sobering read, one I suspect that may have an impact on the way forward to electrification.
ReplyDeleteI must get hold of that book, Jim. Your comment would probably be more appropriate to the posting of 10th April: "If we are to 'save the planet' we need more mining not less"
