2023 "Afterfield session " - South Africa

On June 6, 2023 Sasha Chugunov and Nick Arndt told us about the fascinating trip they made and what they were looking for in South Africa.

The research support team (techniciens, engineers, administrative staff) and non-MEET scientifics staff discovered Barberton in South Africa, see 3.2 billion year old rocks, understood what went on during a field trip, and heard what the ERC MEET project is all about.
