2014 roundup preview Spotlight On Short Courses Roundup's short courses are held in advance of the conference, and cover various topics of interest to the mineral explorer. Reasonably priced, these often sell out well in advance of the conference. Short Course 1  • Exploration Targeting: A Return to the Fundamentals Friday, January 24 Presented by: AME BC and Mike Doggett, Michael Doggett & Associates This course will address the issues that face exploration groups in an ever-changing and challenging global environment for the mineral industry. These issues include fluctuating commodity prices, the escalation in costs associated with constructing and operating new mining projects, the capital crisis facing many junior explorers, and the refocus of senior companies on quality rather than size of assets. The course will examine how these topics impact the minimum tonnage grade conditions required to justify the cost and time of discovering new economic deposits. The characteristics of exploration targets will be considered in the context of the set of known undeveloped deposits. Course materials will draw on a broad range of international case studies with emphasis placed on copper and gold examples. 44   p40-77_roundup.indd 44 Lakelse Air.indd 1   w i n t e r 2 013 13-11-01 11:11 AM 13-11-27 10:09 am
