Approved PIG Hello PIGs, this is a friendly reminder that the website http://community.geosociety.org/gsa2014/science/sessions is open for submission of abstracts to the session on pegmatites at the 2014 GSA meeting in Vancouver, BC (18-22 October). The abstract submission window closes at 11:59 p.m., Pacific Time, 29 July 2014. Most of you have some extensive familiarity with a particular pegmatite body that you know better than anyone else. This is an opportunity to come share that knowledge with others, and to learn about the nature of pegmatites beyond your own first-hand experience..
