Dr. Margaux Le Vaillant was awarded the 2021 Waldemar Lindgren Award by the Society of Economic Geologists.

Waldemar Lindgren Award

The Waldemar Lindgren Award is offered annually to a young scientist whose published research represents an outstanding contribution to economic geology. The award which consists of a citation, dues-free membership in the Society, and travel to annual SEG Conference for the presentation, is not restricted to the candidate’s nationality, place of employment, or membership in the Society. The award is given for contributions to economic geology from any subdiscipline of geology (including, among others, structural geology, mineralogy, environmental geology, hydrology, petrology, geochemistry, stratigraphy, geophysics, and mine geology). Originally awarded for excellence in research by a student, the award, beginning in 1972, is awarded for research in economic geology published before the author’s 35th birthday.
