For next week's Mining Seminar Series, we are very pleased to have Dr. Amirhosein Riahi, Postdoctoral Researcher in the Department of Mining Engineering, Colorado School of Mines. His topic is "Process Intensification for Carbon Sequestration by Resonant Vibratory Mixing." which sounds very interesting and a pertinent topic in current carbon capture strategies.

Hello to the friends and family of Mining Engineering! There is still time to make a gift which will be used for the benefit of our students! A great big thanks goes to Red Conger and Sissy Sailors who provided a $25,000 matching fund which we'd really like to leverage. It isn't too late, so please send in your gift now. Just go to idig.mines.edu and find Mining Engineering under the causes tab and make your tax deductible donation now! Thank you all for your generosity and love for MN! Last plea from me for Giving Day 2025... Peace!

Good morning to all our friends and family of Mining Engineering! Today is #idigmines Giving Day and we hope you will be able to send a gift that goes directly to students providing them with opportunities to broaden their experiential knowledge, enhance skills, and increase their networking opportunities! You all know how passionate we are about creating opportunities for success for our students, and we'll let you in on a little secret. They really are worthy of our efforts and you can help too! For today and today only, Red Conger ('77) and Sissy Sailors provided a 1 to 1 matching fund of $25,000! Help us leverage the match to earn our students $50,000! Any size gift (over $5) counts so we hope you find it within yourself to help our students with their success. Please go to idig.mine.edu and look for Mining Engineering in the Causes tab. Thank you all so much!

Friends and family of Mining Engineering...I need your help! We have the opportunity to receive a $500 bonus this evening if I can persuade 10 supporters to send a gift to our department tonight, before midnight! Unfortunately, if I don't make our 10 donor minimum, we don't win the bonus. That being said, please dig deep (mining punny) and make a gift now. If tonight is not in the picture, please give tomorrow during the Day of Giving and help us meet the matching funds from Red Conger and Sissy Sailors of $25,000! A full match would bring in $50k going directly to our students! Please give now by going to: https://lnkd.in/gU-MzrhS Thanks...love yall! To compell you, I'm gifting you a picture of me! ??????

Good morning, a very happy Wednesday, and a wonderful #idigmines Eve to all our MN friends and family. Tomorrow (12:00AM - 11:59PM) is our annual #idigmines Annual Day of Giving! Please go to https://idig.mines.edu/ to make your gift which goes directly to our students to provide them with opportunities to enhance their career! Developing our students into top-notch mining engineers is our goal, and by keeping an eye out on our alums out in industry, we know we've been rather successful. This is an incredible time to give back to our department so we can continue to produce the best mining engineers possible! This year, we're terribly excited to announce that Red Conger ('77) and Sissy Sailors have provided an $1 to $1 match for Mining Engineering to the sum of $25,000! Please help us get the full matching donation, and also give a great big shout out to Red and Sissy! Again, this is a 24 hour, once a year opportunity to make a huge difference in not only the Mining Engineering Department, but for those students currently in our program. Please give as much as you are comfortable with and what your heart says is right. I gave already and I hope you can find it in you to help as well. Love you all! The Bruce ??
