About the Expert Committees
The technical-scientific work of the GDMB is carried out in its specialist committees. Their members meet regularly to discuss the latest technical and scientific findings in their fields. In addition to a lecture program, topic-related plant tours round off the meetings. The current and future work of the technical committees is determined in internal meetings. Working groups are formed at short notice to deal with individual problems. Their number and focus are variable and are adapted to current requirements.

EXPERT COMMITTEE SPECIAL METALS
Heraeus Precious Metals
Heraeusstraße 12-14, 63450 Hanau, Germany
Program
Due to the increasingly widespread use of special and precious metals in the industrial and consumer sectors, these metals are of great importance in terms of raw material deposits and their extraction, refining processes and extreme purities, areas of application, and recycling of returned materials. In addition to the classic precious and refractory metals, the focus is increasingly on the rare earth and semiconductor metals and their compounds used in electronics/optics and regenerative energy production.

EXPERT COMMITTEE SURFACE MINING TECHNOLOGIES
County Baden-Würtemberg, Germany
Program
The committee focuses on the extraction and processing of near-surface mineral raw materials and related issues of exploration and evaluation of deposits, mining and processing technology, mine planning, subsequent use and raw material security
including approval procedures for raw material extraction in the areas of environmental protection, landscape conservation and water management. A particular concern of the expert committee is the technical-scientific exchange of experience and information with close reference to industrial practice.

HISTORY COMMITTEE
Göttingen, Germany
Programm
Since its foundation in 1957, the GDMB History Committee has pursued the objectives of researching the mining industry, awakening interest in the history of mining and metallurgy, collecting the literature on metal extraction in the Central European region, and maintaining an awareness of miners’ culture and miners’ tradition as an integral part of mining and metallurgical history.
Within the framework of these objectives, very well-attended conferences are held annually, not only in Germany, but also in Austria, Switzerland, Italy, France, Poland and Slovakia.

YOUNG MEMBERS WORKING GROUP
AKJM-Head’s: Dipl.-Ing. Lukas Manthey, Niklas Hartung (Clausthal), Jasmin Groß (Aachen), Patrick Reimann (Freiberg)
The Young Members Working Group (AKJM) aims to integrate younger GDMB members (young engineers and students) more strongly into the activities of the Society and to involve them in its tasks. Furthermore, a higher participation of young members in events of the technical committees and district groups is aimed at. The AKJM conducts its own continuing education seminars. The working group is represented by contact persons at many universities. With its activities, the GDMB wants to present itself primarily to students and young engineers.
In addition, we want to promote the engineering profession. Through company visits, a realistic insight into the diverse activities of geologists, mining engineers, processors, metallurgists and related professions is to be given. Job prospects and career opportunities will be presented in short lectures. Young and experienced colleagues report on their experiences and give tips for choosing a profession and a successful career. Excursions and seminars provide additional opportunities to make personal contacts and clarify further questions.
