The GAC-NL Annual Technical Meeting is an opportunity for members of the geological community of NL and beyond to present their research in a relaxed, relatively informal setting. Students are especially encouraged to attend and present. We welcome abstracts from all geoscience disciplines, related to the geology of NL or elsewhere.

• This year's meeting will be conducted online (details to follow)
• Registration is $10 for professionals; free for students
• Prizes for outstanding student presentations
• Abstracts for oral presentations can be sent to jaredbutler@gov.nl.ca

Sessions and Format

This year's meeting will feature a special session on "New Developments in Mineral and Petroleum Exploration", as well as a General Session open to all geoscience topics.

The meeting will be conducted via Zoom (links will be made available a few days before the meeting). Each presentation will be allocated 15 minutes with an additional 5 minutes for questions. Presentations will be conducted live, via screen sharing (not pre-recorded).

Abstract submission guidelines

We welcome abstracts from all geoscience disciplines, related to the geology of NL or elsewhere, and encourage students in particular to apply. The abstract deadline is Friday, February 4th. We cannot guarantee the inclusion of any abstract submitted after that date, and we strongly encourage early submission to beat the mad rush of eager speakers who will want to participate.

Please read and follow the instructions below carefully.

• Abstracts should be no longer than 300 words. We ask that you use Times New Roman font if possible, and please do not include multiple font styles, sizes, bullets or numbered lists. They should be single-spaced.

• Abstracts should not contain graphics or equations or special symbols (unless the latter are absolutely essential).

• Abstracts should be formatted as indicated in the example (see email; link coming soon).

• Preferred formats for abstract submission are Microsoft Word or rich text format (.rtf). Please don't send abstracts in other formats as we may not be able to read or edit them.

• Abstracts should be sent to the technical program chair as attachments to e-mail messages.
