Lecture by Professor. Paul A. Schroeder: The Georgia Kaolin Industry and New Directions for Critical Minerals in High-Tech Applications

Join us at the Natural History Museum for a lecture by Professor Paul A. Schroeder on the history and global significance of Georgia's kaolin industry and its links to the development of high-tech materials. Drawing on decades of research, he will discuss how kaolin mining may also offer new opportunities to recover rare earth elements, critical minerals essential for modern technologies. This talk will highlight emerging pathways to strengthen sustainable supply chains for advanced materials.
