---Please Announce to Students---

We are pleased to announce the thirteenth annual Iceland Volcanology
Field Camp,
offered by the South Dakota School of Mines & Technology (SD Mines).  The
course is designed to serve undergraduate geology majors and geology
graduate students based on the U.S. â??field campâ?? model.

4 credits, dates June 26 - July 16, 2025, Fee: $5,695 ($6,395 for graduate
credit)
-Fee includes tuition, transportation in Iceland, lodging, and most meals.
Transportation to/from Iceland not included.
-Enrollment limited to 18 students

This project-driven course in geologic mapping and volcanology will
explore Iceland from the south coast where the Mid-Atlantic Ridge comes
ashore to the highlands near the focus of the Iceland mantle plume.
Students undertake two major mapping projects and a number of shorter
physical-volcanology-oriented projects and activities.  Subjects that will
be considered include: basaltic and rhyolitic lava flows, tephra
characterization, ignimbrites, phreatomagmatic features, subglacial
volcanism, volcanic hazards, and geothermal power.  Projects will be
conducted on active volcanic systems, in Late Pleistocene and Holocene
volcanic fields, and in the older Miocene volcanic stratigraphy exposed in
glacial valleys and fjords of Iceland.  If an eruption is ongoing at the
time of the course, and access is safe, legal, and logistically feasible,
the course will visit the eruption site, as it did in 2021 and 2023.
