The event organizers would like to extend thanks to all the participants who attended the inaugural meeting of the newly revived Saskatchewan Geophysical Society (SKGS) on January 19th, 2018. A special thanks to our guest lecturer, Clinton Keller (Cameco Corporation) who spoke on "Parameters Affecting Bulk Resistivity in Athabasca Sandstone" and our discussion panel comprised of Sam Butler (University of Saskatchewan), David Bingham (Bingham Geoscience) and Garnet Wood (Cameco Corporation). The meeting was well attended with about 40 geoscientists from industry, academia and students coming together for some informative discussion and productive networking. The SKGS would like to extend a final thanks to our inaugural meeting sponsor Dias Geophysical for supplying appetizers and refreshments.

All official announcements will be made via the SKGS email list, so if you are not on the contact list and would like to be, please send an email to: saskgeophysicalsociety@gmail.com.
