Prospectors' Tent
Poster Session
Join Us to Honor the Best in Alaska Mining!
The Prospector's Tent is set to become an engaging platform where independent prospectors and ear- ly-exploration projects can showcase their mineral prospects and exciting discoveries. This unique opportunity not only facilitates the sharing of findings but also underscores the sig- nificance of sparking fresh discoveries and forging valuable partnerships within the vast terrain of Alaska. It is a dedicated space for captivating displays, informative maps, intriguing photographs, and fas- cinating rock samples, offering conference attend- ees a valuable chance to delve into the potential of early-stage properties and the collaborative opportunities they hold in Alaska's mineral-rich landscape.
Students and professionals interested in presenting scientific research and technology with respect to mineral exploration, engineering, operations, eco- nomics, reclamation, environment and other sub- jects pertinent to the mining industry are invited to present posters at the AMA Convention. The Poster Session will be held Tuesday, Nov. 4 on the second floor of the Dena’ina Center from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Each poster will be provided a 4-foot by 8-foot free-standing display board. Poster session participants should be available to answer questions at their displays during breaks between Technical Sessions. AMA encourages posters to be displayed throughout the convention and removed by the end of the Technical Sessions. The presenting author of an accepted poster abstract will receive complimentary convention registration. All abstracts will go through an AMA review process prior to acceptance. Please note that abstracts of a commercial sales nature will be declined for the poster session, and the author will be encouraged to pursue a tradeshow booth or core shack display.
