The Peacock Medal
The Peacock Medal is awarded to a scientist who has made outstanding contributions to the mineral sciences in Canada.
There is no restriction regarding nationality or residency. The medal is intended to recognize the breadth and universality of these contributions in mineralogy, applied mineralogy, petrology, crystallography, geochemistry or the study of mineral deposits rather than in a narrow area of expertise.
A committee of three Past Presidents, chaired by the immediate Past President, considers all nominations received.
Nominations are valid for two years and should be accompanied by a one-page explanation of the merits of your nominee and forwarded to The Mineralogical Association of Canada Business Office by December 31:
