XIV South American Symposium on Isotope Geology (SSAGI) in Uruguay

Garry Armstrong will be in Uruguay from today, 13th April, to 16th April, co-exhibiting with Shaun Yardley, Product Manager at Isotopx at the XIV South American Symposium on Isotope Geology (SSAGI) in Montevideo.

The XIV SSAGI will be held in an in-person format at the Town Hall Conference Centre of Montevideo (18 de Julio, Avue. 1360 – floor 1 ½, Montevideo), Cordón neighborhood, just a few steps from the kilometer zero of the city (Cagancha Square) and the historic centre.

The symposium aims to bring together the Latin American geoscientific community to present new contributions and to exchange ideas on the application of isotope geochemistry and geochronology to basic and applied research. The conferences will cover subjects like crustal and mantle evolution, geochronology of metamorphic and igneous processes, geochronology and isotope geochemistry of ore deposits, low temperature geochronology of geological processes, isotope applications in paleoclimatology, sedimentary provenance, environmental geochemistry and hydrogeology, forensic science, and new isotope developments.

Plenary lectures will be given by Chris Hawkesworth, professor Emeritus at the University of Bristol and Alcides Nobrega Sial, Professor Emeritus at the Federal University of Pernambuco, Brazil.

Keynote speakers are:

Carlos Rapela UNLP – CONICET, Argentina

Andreas Petersson University of Western Australia – Swedish Museum of Natural History

The XIV SSAGI is hosted by the SUG – Uruguayan Geological Society and organized by committees composed by geoscientists from Universities and Research Centres.
