Abstract: The rise and fall of Bre-X – a Calgary-based company who owned allegedly the world’s largest, richest gold deposit, in Indonesia – is, without hyperbole, the biggest mining fraud in history. Yet, no charges were ever laid. The scandal led to numerous regulatory and licensing changes around the world. This talk describes the whole story.

Abstract: Multispectral satellite analysis unveils Earth’s mineral secrets. Pixels, each a spectral blend, act like partial fingerprints matched to a spectral database. Geologists use this for economic prospecting, identifying high-abundance clusters. The presentation covers spectral analysis, free satellite imagery, and real-world projects, showcasing precise mineral identification for groundbreaking exploration.

Abstract: In November 2021, the Government of Alberta unveiled a strategic plan to unlock the province’s untapped mineral resource potential. A key component of this strategy is “increasing public geoscience.” This initiative has empowered the Alberta Geological Survey (AGS) to undertake a comprehensive data acquisition program. This presentation will provide an overview of the data acquired, ongoing analyses, and our approach to making this information accessible through online platforms.

Abstract: Komatiite Exploration Ltd was founded in 2021 and is a private mineral exploration company with access to full mineral title for two separate contiguous properties in British Columbia. Battery metals are at the forefront of exploration including Ni, Cu, Co, Mn, Cr, and Li. Other minerals containing Au, Ag, Platinum Group Elements (PGE’s), and Light Rare Earth Elements are also being assessed. This presentation will focus on Sidley which is the larger of the two properties.
