Hello everyone,

Today, Wed Oct 14th, is our inaugural day and also our biggest day  for Mining 
Committee events at SEG 2020.

I wish to welcome everyone from the mining community who is attending SEG 2020.

Just a few  last minute details: Firstly, with regards to the Election of MG 
Technical Chair/Key Contact at our Annual
Meeting tonight, we now only have one nominee: Dr. Jiajia Sun, Assistant 
Professor, Department of Earth & Atmospheric
Sciences, University of Houston.

Of course, we shall recognize and welcome any other nominations, in case anyone 
else comes forward at
the Annual Meeting.

And secondly, speaking of Annual Meeting, this is to confirm that the meeting 
will take place at 5:30-6:30 PM CT (Central Time).

Thirdly, I want to encourage everyone who is attending the talks in our oral 
session MG1 this morning and poster session MGP1
this afternoon to Download the SEG 2020 App and please take the time to 
review/rate the talks in our session.

And lastly, I want to remind everyone that our Mining Keynote is today 
Wednesday 12:00-1:00PM CT where we’ll
be welcoming Dr. Michael Thorpe, Post Doctoral Fellow NASA Johnson Space 
Center. His talk is entitled
“The Story of Clays on Earth and Mars; Preparing for Exploration by the 
Perseverance Rover”.
