With the presentation of the Young Scientist’s Paper Award 2018, the GDMB Gesellschaft der Metallurgen und Bergleute e. V. will pursue its goal to consequently support young talents. This prize, for the first time awarded on the occasion of the EMC European Metallurgical Conference and Lead-Zinc in 2015, addresses students and young scientists who hold excellent lectures, thus making an important contribution to the future development of the raw materials industry.
Each lecturer who has not yet exceeded the maximum age of 30 years, can apply for the young-talent award. The lecture along with a short portrait of the winner will be published in issue 5/2018 of the trade journal World of Mining – Surface & Underground. In addition, the award winner will get free admission to the second European Mineral Processing and Recycling Congress as well as a free two-year membership in the GDMB.
The scientific committee under the leadership of Prof. Dr.-Ing. Tobias Elwert, warmly invites plant manufacturers, recycling companies, processing companies as well as employees of research institutions and engineering firms to the congress in Essen and looks forward to numerous registrations under:
