Birmingham Geophysics Workshop a Success!

The recent VMRC workshop on the geophysics and seismic interpretation of volcanic rocks was a success and was attended by over 30 industry specialists. Many thanks to Nick Schofield and Richard Hobbs for their hard work in putting together a very stimulating series of talks, and many thanks to those industry geologists and geophysicists who contributed presentations to the workshop.
