WAIVER AND STUDENT VERIFICATION FORM

For 2025, GANJ will convene at the historic Sterling Hill Mining Museum in Ogdensburg, New Jersey. Titled Revisiting the Sterling Hill Orebody: Challenges in Understanding and Mining this Magnificent Deposit, this unique event is designed for geologists and educators. The 2025 conference blends history, cutting-edge science, and hands-on exploration of one of the region’s most iconic ore deposits. Attendees will hear firsthand accounts from miners who worked in the stopes, offering a glimpse into the daily challenges and triumphs of extracting minerals from this extraordinary geological formation. The program also features talks by leading experts who will shed light on the complexities of the Sterling Hill orebody and share their investigations and those of former workers that continue to inspire research today. Additionally, the conference will introduce a newly developed, digitized 3D model of the orebody, providing attendees with a state-of-the-art perspective on its structural and geochemical intricacies.

The conference will cover the structural geology and geochemistry of the deposit while celebrating its remarkable mineralogical history. Sterling Hill is renowned for its diverse and vibrant mineral assemblages, and speakers will explore the historical and scientific significance of these minerals in the broader context of the mine’s legacy. Participants will have unparalleled access to the deposit itself. This access, combined with expert presentations and innovative tools like the 3D model, ensures a truly exceptional experience. Sterling Hill’s rich mining heritage and geological significance will serve as the perfect backdrop for advancing understanding of orebody complexities while fostering connections between academia and the geological community. Additional surprises and exclusive opportunities will make this event an unmissable highlight of 2025 for regional geologists and educators alike.
