Call for Abstracts is Open!

We welcome a wide variety of talks and encourage creativity and innovative ideas and presentations. This year's theme, Rocky Mountain Resilience - Reclaim, Reprocess & Re-imagine Mining, asks us to consider the foundational connections of water and watersheds and how we may be inspired by nature itself in our endeavors for extracting and re-using resources, akin to the planet's perpetual water cycle.

Specifically, we welcome presentations concerning mining, mine lands remediation, nonpoint-source AML pollution, and water quality, with the goal of improving mining and reclamation practices, and addressing water-quality impairment in the Rocky Mountain West.

Submissions are due by May 15, 2026.

Selected presenters will be notified in late May.
