Someone @UNLVGeoscience has been clearing out their office a little and is disposing of these bits of history relating to the @NASA Viking lander missions to Mars…

Good to see @UNLVGeoscience @unlv represented in b). Really big difference between total numbers (where we don’t appear because we are way below 400/yr) and the proportion of our students that are Hispanic/Latinx; why we are one of the most diverse universities in the US.

Excellent opportunity at the @UNLVGeoscience!

New Economic Geology and Mineral Resource Management teaching-focused position @UNLVGeoscience supported by @NevadaGoldMines; for more details and to apply, see: nshe.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/UNLV-Ext…

@sciencecafeLV is tomorrow night at McMullan's Irish Pub on Tropicana. Come learn about marine food webs with Dr. Carrie Tyler! #UNLVCollegeofSciences #Research @UNLVGeoscience

Part two of my appearance on @RHP_Pod is up and available for listening, focusing on mineral geopolitics and critical metal supply chains… buzzsprout.com/1918527/123142… @UNLVGeoscience @UNLV_CoS

Another @sciencecafeLV is one week from today on March 1st! Mark your calendars to join Dr. Carrie Tyler for an interesting discussion on marine food webs. #UNLVCollegeofSciences #Research @UNLVGeoscience

Don't forget to join us tomorrow (February 15th) for the Inaugural Kinross Gold Lecture in Geoscience from 4:00-5:30 PM in the SEB Auditorium on the UNLV Campus. @kinrossgold @UNLVGeoscience #UNLV

Looking forward to this first @kinrossgold lecture @UNLVGeoscience

@UNLVGeoscience is hosting the Inaugural Kinross Gold Lecture on February 15th from 4:00-5:30 PM in the SEB Auditorium on the UNLV Campus. @kinrossgold #UNLV

Good to see that it’ll be a @sciencecafelv @UNLVGeoscience double header for the first meetings of the year; me tonight and then Carrie next month… @McMullansPub

Simon Jowitt from @UNLVGeoscience talks to @KTNV about a costly crime trend in the Las Vegas valley. youtube.com/watch?v=wHpvWF…

Nice to be able to talk about precious metals and catalytic converter theft with @KTNV: m.youtube.com/watch?v=wHpvWF… @UNLVGeoscience @UNLV_CoS @unlv…

Always nice to be involved in the debunking of fake news @unlv @UNLVGeoscience @UNLV_CoS apnews.com/article/fact-c…

Excellent to see @unlv’s newsmakers for 2022 includes an entire “Can You Dig It” section focused on mining and the minerals industry @UNLVGeoscience @UNLV_CoS unlv.edu/news/article/u…

More news from the Mars Perseverance rover as scientists think about soil samples from the Red Planet. "Each sample represents an integrated history of the planet's surface," says Libby Hausrath of @UNLVGeoscience. conta.cc/3Wk6F8N

Congratulations to the @UNLVGeoscience graduates who got their PhD or MS degrees at @unlv commencement today. Well done Drew, Audrey, @nathancarey04 and @zoplanktonn; two of my economic geology group going on to bigger and better things.

Building up to see two of the @UNLVGeoscience Economic Geology group fly the nest… congratulations to Drew and Nathan! Some better pics to follow…

Wishing for a White Christmas? ❄️🌲 Well... too bad. You live in Las Vegas. *cries in desert* Vegas has not measured snow on Xmas Day since records began (1937). BUT, it did flurry in 1941, 1988, 2008, & 2015. 😉 Shoutout to our Alaskan colleagues for the cool graphic! #VegasWx

Changing the state's mining story will require Nevada to embrace a bigger picture, one that only begins with lithium extraction. Simon Jowitt of @UNLVGeoscience talks about the importance of mining to combat #climatechange. conta.cc/3ViGbEt
