There
are vacancies on the Council for members to stand for election for three years
– two people are retiring by rotation and standing for re-election, with a
further two vacancies available. If you
are interested and would like further information, please contact the
Secretary. Nominations from younger and
female members are particularly encouraged, as these groups are under-represented
at present.
Following the AGM Lloyd Holliday will speak. Red mud or red sludge
is a waste product generated in the industrial production of aluminium. With
about 77 million tons of this hazardous material produced annually, red mud is
one of the most important disposal problems in the mining industry.
