Please join us for the Fall 2024 Georgia Partnerships for Essential Minerals Workshop II, hosted by the Georgia Institute of Technology, Georgia State University, the University of Georgia, and the Georgia Mining Association (GMA). Together with the GMA and the three Georgia R1 research universities, participants will converge to:

  • Develop a state and regional ecosystem demonstrating a critical mineral supply chain from resources to solutions to end users
  • Establish a regional critical mineral consortium to facilitate resource exploration, characterization, processing, and utilization
  • Focus on workforce training for this emerging industry
  • Create official industry-university collaborations that include internships, field trips, curricular training, R&D collaboration, and stakeholder liaisons
