Future Conferences:
For those qualified institutions that may wish to hold a Basement Tectonics Conference it is necessary to contact the Board of Trustees of the Basement Tectonics Association. Preference is given to those organizations that have the financial capability to hold such a conference and those that have professional personnel with experience and reputation in basement studies and basement mapping. The location of the conference site and the ability to host field trips to important basement or basement-related geological features is also considered in the selection of Basement Tectonics host organizations.
