NEWSBREAKERS
AESC 2021 goes virtual
The AESC 2021 organising committee, having considered all the potential scenarios, including postponing to 2022, has decided that the AESC 2021 will be a virtual conference that will run 9 - 12 February in 2021.
It's obviously very disappointing that we will not all gather in Hobart in February, but the GSA is confident that the Organising Committee will deliver a benchmark virtual experience with a Tasmanian flavour said Jo Parr, GSA President.
The latest information will be added to the website in the coming week - stay tuned and don't forget to follow the AESC on social media for the latest news.

WA Division Online
Plans are afoot to resume face-to-face talks for the WA Division at the Irish Club in August. Stay tuned for more news.
Vitor Barrote has generously recorded his presentation 4D evolution of replacement-type VHMS ore systems in the Yilgarn Craton, Western Australia for the GSA WA Division.
Talk abstract: The discovery of mineral deposits is critical to the long-term sustainability of the Australian mining industry. Innovative approaches to mineral exploration and the application of state-of-the-art research techniques to improve the comprehension and detection of ore bodies is fundamental to address the formidable challenges posed by Australia's complex geological framework and paucity of outcrops. 4D evolutionary models of ore deposits can be generated by combining geological observations with data from several isotopic systems, in a multi-disciplinary approach, to constrain the timing of major geological processes present in the development of a deposit. These models contribute to a better understanding of the evolutionary framework of an ore deposit, the timing of mineralisation, and the processes that drive metal supply and precipitation. This is particular true in Archean replacement-type VHMS deposits, where the syn-volcanic timing of the mineralisation is not always clear. Ultimately the construction of a 4D framework culminates in the development of new or improved exploration tools.

INTRA GSA (Informal NeTwoRk cAtchup for GSA Members) on a roll
Thanks to our ECG and MCG GSA members who shared their thoughts on their favourite rocks and outcrops at the July INTRA GSA! We had specimens, samples and photos on screen from all over the world, ranging from celestine-quartz-calcite geodes from Israel to Amethyst Fluorite on a pegmatite from Alice Springs! Thanks to everyone who attended our geo 'show and tell'.
INTRA GSA will be back again on Wed 12 August - if you're an early (ECG) or mid-career (MCG) GSA member and would like to register please click here.

AESC 2021 session description spotlight: Geomechanics for Energy and Resources
chaired by Dr Mojtaba Rajabi
Geomechanics has been demonstrated over the past 30 years as having key importance for the safe and sustainable usage of underground environments. In particular, knowledge of geomechanics is critical for exploration and production of hydrocarbon, geothermal energy and mineral resources extraction, CO2 geo-sequestration, groundwater exploration and production. The main goal of this session is therefore to bring together researchers from various engineering and geo-disciplines to share their knowledge in recent advancements in experimental, numerical, theoretical and field application of geomechanics in conventional and unconventional petroleum reservoirs, mining engineering, geothermal and civil engineering.
IN THE NEWS
Papua New Guinea shaken
A 7.0 magnitude earthquake, with its epicentre near the Papuan eastern coast around 150 kilometres from the Port Moresby, has shaken the region. A tsunami alert was issued but later cancelled. The earthquake occurred as a result of oblique normal faulting at approximately 80 km beneath eastern Papua New Guinea, near the northern edge of the Australia plate.

Europe is more active than assumed
A new study of the Eifel region of northwest Europe revealed it has more seismic activity that expected. This in turn is linked to a subtle dome-like uplift, suggesting the upwards migration of a mantle plume.

Moving magnets
Observations combined with computer modelling have revealed that extreme directional changes of the Earth's magnetic field are associated with movement of reversed flux across the core surface. The magnetic field could also change direction by as much as 10 degrees per year in zones where the field was weakening. This is about 100 times faster than changes seen in modern observations.

Coming up in TAG
June TAG delivered and the September issue in editing
The June issue of TAG included a feature on the geochronology of the Boogardie Orbicular Granite, written by Michael Wingate of the Geological Survey of Western Australia. The Boogardie Orbicular Granite, found 35 km west of Mount Magnet in the heart of the Murchison region of WA, is a small intrusion that consists of subspherical orbicules, about 5 to 15 cm diameter, within a medium to coarse-grained granitic matrix. The distinctive orbicules are composed of concentric shells of radiating hornblende and plagioclase feldspar crystals. If you have not received your June TAG please contact membership@gsa.org.au
