"It is not true that people stop pursuing dreams because they grow old, they grow old because they stop pursuing dreams."

Gabriel Garcia Marquez

Chris Jennings In July 2014 was honoured and received the Des Pretorius Memorial Award recognizing lifetime achievements in economic geology (Geological Society of South Africa) Lawrence A. Taylor - The Union Fellows Selection Committee is proud to present the 2014 class of AGU Fellows. Established in 1962, the Fellows program recognizes AGU members who have attained acknowledged eminence in the Earth and space sciences as valued by their peers and vetted by a Union- wide committee of Fellows. Primary criteria for evaluation in scientific eminence are a major breakthrough or discovery, paradigm shift, or sustained impact. 6 Symposium Diamonds in Brazil held August 3-7th - Abstracts Thank you to Jaime Presser for sending the abstracts to me. *Note - I do appreciate when I receive information that I might not have been able to access!!! The abstracts are predominately in Portuguese and English and the context is amenable to all. I have listed the abstracts individually. The abstract volume also includes the field trip guide and a reprint of Shirey and Shigley from Gems & Gemology. PDAC LIST of Diamond Session talks from 1986-2015 is available as an xl file. The LIST is only the year, author and title of talk *** Sadly I did not keep the abstracts over the years! If anyone is interested just to see the list and reflect on the developments identified over these many years … please ask and I will send it to the individual. **** I began organizing the sessions in 1992 and as well the short course in 1993.
