The Society of Economic Geologists (SEG) is planning six field trips in conjunction with its Global Exploration conference, slated for April 14-16, 2002, in Littleton, Colo.
The trips will encompass:

– the Mission-Pima skarn-porphyry system, near Tucson, Ariz.
– the Cananea district in Mexico;
– Arizona’s Morenci district;
– the San Nicolas volcanogenic massive sulphide deposit in Mexico’s Zacatecas state;
– the Carlin-type gold-silver deposits in northern Nevada;
– the Cripple Creek district in Colorado; and

In addition, there are 22 talks and 6 sessions packed into the 3-day meeting. Speakers included representatives of Noril’sk, Lihir Gold and Ashanti Goldfields.
