The George Brown Lecture Sponsored by the Clay Minerals GroupThe George Brown Lecture, inaugurated in 2000, is named after the eminent British clay mineralogist George Brown, one of the founding members of the Clay Minerals Group. The lecture is given at one of the Group’s annual meetings, by a speaker who is invited by the Secretary of CMG, based on advice from the Committee. The lecturer is a clay mineralogist, academic or industrial, recognised as an authority in their particular field, and the lecture is published as a review in Clay Minerals.
