Centre for Russian and Central EurAsian Mineral Studies (CERCAMS)

Patrons

Why does CERCAMS need Patrons?

In order to develop and enhance collaborative research it is necessary to bring academic and industry experts from across the Eurasian region together. Monies pledged will be used to support the travel costs of expert visitors to CERCAMS. The patronage funds will also be used to initiate new research projects pertaining to problem areas in mineral deposit research of the Eurasian region. Less than 10% of the funding will be used in meeting some of the administrative costs of the Centre.
