HOSTED BY

PACRIM 2015 ORGANISING COMMITTEE

On behalf of the organising committee

I am pleased to invite you to PACRIM

2015, which will be held in Hong Kong

from 18–21 March 2015 in conjunction

with the recently formed AusIMM Hong

Kong Branch.

PACRIM 2015 follows a tradition of

successful technically-focused meetings

which have become the premier AusIMM conference on the

Pacific Rim, bringing together the most recent advances in

academic research and geological understanding, regional

surveys by government agencies and the industry’s latest

discoveries and projects that showcase the importance of the

Pacific Rim for global mineral wealth and investment.

The program will consist of three full technical days followed

by congress-hosted workshops in collaboration with SEG. A

number of high-profile plenary keynote speakers have been

invited to present at the congress and based on previous

events, we anticipate a very high standard of speakers. The

program also offers a range of invaluable workshops, together

with a number of site visits and excellent networking

opportunities.

It’s going to be a great event. We hope you’ll join us to

experience it for yourself.

Dale Sims FAusIMM(CP)Congress Chair, PACRIM 2015

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?• Exploration, mining and research geologists

• Exploration managers

• Government departments including geological surveys and minesdepartments

• Resource analysts and professionals involved in financing exploration andmining projects

• Consultants and service providers

• Academia and research organisations

• Affiliated Industry organisations and professional bodies

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF ATTENDING?• Keep up to date with the latest mineral exploration and research

techniques, future projects and key issues

• Engage in valuable discussions with industry stakeholders presenting onkey issues

• Connect and network with fellow industry professionals

• Participate in pre- and post-conference workshops and field trips

• Meet key service and instrument providers relevant to mineral exploration

INVITATION TO REGISTERPACRIM is a quadrennial

congress that focuses

on research, exploration

and development of

mineral deposits around the Pacific Rim.

Its appeal extends far and wide to geologists,

geophysicists and geochemists exploring in

the Pacific Rim, and to people interested in

the mineralisation processes of active

tectonic margins, and those developing

projects following discovery in these regions.

PRLIMINARY LIST OF ABSTRACTS

The North-east New Territories Region of the Hong Kong Geopark ischaracterised by a variety of sedimentary rocks of Late Palaeozoic,Mesozoic and Cenozoic age. The region includes the oldest rocks, aswell as the youngest rocks exposed in Hong Kong. Many of thesestrata are exposed along the shores of Tolo Channel, around DoubleHaven and in Mirs Bay. The tour will include a boat trip down ToloChannel to the tranquil beaches and island waters of Double Havenwith two major stops to examine the coastal geology, separated by aseafood lunch at a traditional fishing village. The coastal stops willinclude examination of soft sedimentary deformation structures in asequence of Jurassic volcaniclastic rocks, and a visit to a Cretaceoussedimentary breccia sequence which forms a spectacular sea arch.

The geo tour to the Sai Kung south-east volcanic rockregion of Hong Kong geopark is suggested for thosewho would like to explore the coastal geologicallandscapes with hexagonal volcanic rock columns.The volcanic rock with columnar joints found in the HighIsland region is a type of acidic rhyolite ¾ dacite porphyroclastic lava.It is rich in potash feldspar and quartz phenocrysts and at around 400metres thick, these rocks are known as High Island Formation. Theyare part of the Early Cretaceous Kau Sai Chau Volcanic Group. Mostoutcropped strata of Sharp Island belong to Mesozoic Cretaceous vol-canic Clearwater Bay Formation, a formation composed primarily offlow-banded porphyritic rhyolite lava, rhyolite breccia and eutaxiticvitric tuff. The Clearwater Bay Formation is part of the Kau Sai ChauVolcanic Group, the youngest of its kind in the territory. It is marked byfeatures of volcanic activities in Hong Kong during the final stage ofthe Mesozoic Era also found on Sharp Island, just below ClearwaterBay Formation, are Mang Kung Uk Formation volcanic rocks.

Skarn deposits are some of the largest ore deposits in the world but canbe complicated in the field. This one-day workshop is designed to helpexplorers understand skarn deposits with common sense explorationconcepts and easy to apply mineralogical guides. We will clarify the basicconcepts and terminology, explain the current understanding ofskarn-forming processes and summarize the general characteristics ofmajor skarn types. The focus will be on the zonation patterns in skarnsthat are useful in exploration with a discussion of how the zonation patternvaries in different environments. The workshop will cover the followingtopics:1. Introduction, definition and mineralogy2. Classification and terminology3. Skarn-forming processes and evolutionary stages4. General characteristics of major skarn types5. Zonation in skarn systems6. Factors affecting the formation of skarns and zonation patterns7. Skarn exploration techniques.The workshop will include hand samples to demonstrate various skarnminerals, skarn types and zonation patterns.

Portable X-ray fluorescence (pXRF) technology can be used to collectlarge amounts of multi-element data rapidly at relatively low cost and hasbeen widely embraced within the minerals industry. However, to date, ithas been difficult to compare data-sets collected by different users or atdifferent times because there is no standardised approach to the collectionof these data. I will show you how to collect reliable pXRF data, some ofthe pitfalls to avoid and how to assess that your data are robust andfit-for-purpose.

Participants will be invited to provide input to the workshop regardingapplications that they are interested in so that the short course can befocussed to their interests if possible.

Introduction and setting the scene (definitions, codes of practice, levels ofproject studies, audits and reviews)

Drilling-related inputs to mineral resources (drill programme design, drillingmethods, surveying, sample preparation, analytical techniques, loggingand related processes, bulk density)

Non-drilling-related inputs (geological mapping, rock chip and channelsampling, bulk sampling, geophysics)

Data management and QA/QC processes (data entry and management,validation, QA/QC methods)

Resource estimation (interpretation, domaining, data analysis, gradecapping, geostatistics, variography, estimation, validation, classification,documentation and reporting)

Group interaction and case studies are used to illustrate and reinforceworkshop concepts.
