SUMMARY:Green gold? How to get metals out of the ground in a “green” and sustainable way (lecture)
DESCRIPTION:Professor Gawen Jenkin\, University of Leicester \nWe need mineral resources to underpin a good quality of life for the still-expanding population of planet Earth. Although we might ultimately develop a “circular economy” where all resources are recycled\, this is a long way off and we will need to continue to extract minerals for many years to come. However\, the mining industry is under a variety of pressures\, both geological and anthropogenic\, which make it ever harder to operate economically. The industry needs to be moving to more sustainable operations\, in particular reducing carbon emissions and ensuring it earns the consent of the local and global communities – the so called Social Licence to Operate. \nAt Leicester\, we have developed an exciting breakthrough technology using ionic liquids that has the potential to revolutionise the processing of mineral ores to metals in a green and environmentally-friendly way. We have the potential to replace the use of cyanide in industrial gold extraction and the uncontrolled use of mercury by artisanal gold miners – one of the biggest sources of mercury contamination on the planet. Ultimately\, the mine of the future\, might not involve a hole in the ground or people going underground and have a considerably smaller impact on our environment. \nThe talk is aimed to be accessible for non-specialists. \nBackground reading: Abbott AP\, Al-Bassam AZM\,Goddard A\, Harris RC\, Jenkin GRT\, Nisbett F & Wieland M (2017). Dissolution of Pyrite and other Fe-S-As minerals using Deep Eutectic Solvents. Green Chemistry\, 19\, 2225-2233\, DOI: 10.1039/C7GC00334J. \nGawen grew up in Cornwall surrounded by the legacy of what was once one of the richest mining areas in the world\, and was fortunate to be able to study A-level Geology at the Humphry Davy Grammar School\, Penzance. After his Geology degree in Nottingham he did his PhD in Glasgow on ancient geothermal systems in Connemara. He liked Scotland so much he stayed as a postdoc/research fellow for another nine years working at the Scottish Universities Research and Reactor Centre on isotope geochemistry and its application to mineralising and metamorphic processes. \nTaking up a lectureship at Leicester in 1997 Gawen has taught Mineral Deposit Geology and Genesis and in 2009 was awarded a Distinguished University Teaching Fellowship “In recognition of his inspiring and imaginative teaching and his involvement in national initiatives which promote student learning in Geology.” He has been Schools Liaison and Student Recruitment Tutor for Geology since 2003 and estimates he has given more than 300 talks on Open Days and school visits. Recently he has been an adviser to the exam boards for the new Geology A/AS and GCSE qualifications. \nHis research in geochemistry has continued on areas as diverse as arsenic in human toenails (and in earthworms)\, the “Snowball Earth” in Ethiopia\, and natural CO2 sequestration\, as well as gold mineralisation in Scotland and the Solomon Islands and copper in Cyprus. Recently he has developed a new field of mineral processing in collaboration with Leicester Chemistry which forms the topic of this talk.

SUMMARY:The United Downs Deep Geothermal Power project (lecture)
DESCRIPTION:Peter Ledingham\, Geoscience Ltd \nGeological map of Cornwall showing granite intrusions in red\nThe United Downs Deep Geothermal Power project is the first development of its kind in the UK. It is located near Redruth in west Cornwall and is part-funded by the European Regional Development Fund and Cornwall Council. Two wells have been drilled to intersect a target fault structure that\, it is hoped\, will provide enough natural permeability to allow circulation between the wells and the generation of between 1 and 3MWe. \nDrilling began in November 2018 and was completed at the end of June 2019. The production well reached a depth of 5\,275m (MD) and the injection well 2\,393m (MD)\, and the project is now in its evaluation phase. \nPeter will outline the geothermal resources in Cornwall\, describe the development of the UDDGP project and give an update on progress. \nBackground reading: see https://www.uniteddownsgeothermal.co.uk/ \nPeter graduated in mining engineering from Camborne School of Mines in 1980. He is a founding member of Geoscience Ltd\, which he joined following six years at the School of Mines engaged in the Hot Dry Rock geothermal research project. He has more than 30 years experience in geothermal engineering\, well testing\, reservoir engineering\, experiment design and project management. He has worked for the European Commission as an expert evaluator of geothermal project applications since 2007. He is a Director of Geothermal Engineering Limited\, who hope to develop the first commercial geothermal power project in the UK. Away from the office Peter enjoys travel and sport\, spending time with his children and grandchildren\, and music. He is recently retired as the drummer in a Beatles tribute band.

SUMMARY:Hydrocarbon exploration in volcanic effected basins (lecture)
DESCRIPTION:Dr Nick Schofield\, Aberdeen University \n \nThe UK Rockall Basin forms part of the NE Atlantic margin and is truly a frontier basin. With only 12 exploration wells\, all drilled between 1980 and 2006\, it is one of the most underexplored areas of the UK Continental Shelf (UKCS). Of the 12 wells\, 11 were dry holes and one\, the Benbecula (154/01-1) well\, discovered a sub-commercial gas accumulation. This low historic success rate\, together with the harsh NE Atlantic operating environment and the lack of infrastructure have created a negative view of the exploration potential of the UK Rockall Basin. Exploration in the basin is perceived by the industry at large to be high risk and low reward. However\, considerable advances have been made in the understanding of Atlantic Margin geology since the last well was drilled in the Rockall Basin. Re-evaluation of drilling results in light of the current understanding of NE Atlantic Margin geology reveals that previous drilling efforts may have been hampered by a misunderstanding of the geological development of the basin and that viable untested plays may exist within the basin. \nFurther reading: see http://www.rockallbasin.com/ \nNick Schofield is a Senior Lecturer in Igneous and Petroleum Geology. He specializes in the seismic and field interpretation of intrusive and extrusive sequences in volcanic terranes and their interaction with hydrocarbon systems. \n

SUMMARY:Anglesey
DESCRIPTION:Field days: Monday/ Tuesday/ Wednesday/ Thursday \nLeader: Chris Arkwright \nThis is a 5-night trip with 4 days in the field. \nAnglesey is regarded as a “classic” area of British geology; while its oldest rocks appear to be unrelated to those of the rest of the British Isles\, the remainder provide a detailed record of events which led to the formation of southern Britain. Formed between 650 and 300 Ma\, they include high grade gneisses\, a granite pluton\, metasediments\, sandstones\, mudstones and the famous Anglesey Blueschists. There are also Paleogene dykes and abundant glacial features. A number of NE–SW faults slice the island into blocks; large sandstones blocks are thought by some geologists to mark the location of an ancient subduction zone. The original map was published in 1920 and BGS is currently undertaking a project of new research into the island’s geology. \nMore information about the geology of Anglesey can be found on the BGS website. \nAccommodation will be in B&B and means of travel has yet to be decided. \nThe trip is now almost full; if you wish more details please email the society’s residential excursions secretary\, Maggie Donnelly.

SUMMARY:Dalry & Saltcoats
DESCRIPTION:I surveyed some members asking if they had any requests for places to visit this summer. Several members stated that back in 2002 they had thoroughly enjoyed an excursion to Dalry and Saltcoats and asked if we could go there again. We are therefore recreating this visit with the same leader and hopefully the same glorious weather that accompanied the original trip. Trilobite-bearing limestone\, exotic sills\, dykes and fossilised trees are all on the menu. \nLeader: Dr Colin MacFadyen \nPricing/ Booking Information \n£30 deposit. This is set at a level to recover the anticipated costs of the trip. A small financial adjustment may be made on the bus on the day of the trip. \nAdditional Information \nLeaving Gregory Building at 9:00\, returning at 18:00\, travelling by coach

SUMMARY:Northern Lake District
DESCRIPTION:As an experiment\, I am trying a slightly longer trip this year in the hope that fewer of our members have already seen the geology. I am assuming around 3 hours on the bus each way. The trip is a walk of about 2.5 km up the Glenderaterra valley from the car park at the Blencathra Field Centre with 4-6 stops along the path\, returning the same way\, so a total of 5 km of easy going. The main theme is contact metamorphism and mineralisation in the Skiddaw Slate around the Skiddaw Granite. There are pubs in Threlkeld and the intention is to head there for an evening meal around 5 pm before heading back up the road. \nLeader: Dr Simon Cuthbert \nPricing/ Booking Information \n£40 deposit. This is set at a level to recover the anticipated costs of the trip. A small financial adjustment may be made on the bus on the day of the trip. \nAdditional Information \nLeaving Gregory Building at 9:00\, returning at 21:00\, travelling by coach
