Damien Kreb ABC interview: Rare Minerals in Greenland

(forward to 17.55 for the interview, courtesy of the ABC Rural program)

It is with great sadness that we announce the death of our former Chairman for the WASMA Patrons group, Hon Peter Jones AM.

Peter was previously respective Ministers for Mines & Energy and Resources Development & Education, in the Sir Charles Court Governments. He was a retired farmer, held numerous appointments in the private sector and remained until his death very well connected and highly regarded in senior government levels.

Peter was a great believer in Mining Education and passionate about WASM. He will be sorely missed

Jayne Finch, WASM graduate, treasurer of the WASMA Kalgoorlie Branch, Underground Project and Planning Engineer, Kalgoorlie Consolidated Gold Mine, has been nominated for Outstanding Woman In Resources in the CME Women in Resources Awards.

Winner to be announced at the CME breakfast march 3 2017.

Make sure you vote for Jayne:

Matthew Jerkovich, a WASM Graduate, member of the alumni,  mentor, friend, son and brother, died tragically in a car accident on his way to work, Jan 2017.

He was only 24.

Deepest sympathies to his family and his friends.

RIP Matty
