The University of Saskatchewan has received a $3M donation from alumni Dr Roman Shklanka and Patricia Shklanka to establish the Shklanka Chair in Precambrian Critical Minerals Systems. Housed in the Department of Geological Sciences, this chair will focus on fundamental and applied research in critical mineral systems, such as ore-forming processes and metal-mineral associations. “The Shklanka Chair will play an important role in mentoring the next generation of USask students who will lead in building the provincial and national workforce in the field of critical minerals systems,” said USask College of Arts and Science Dean Dr Brooke Milne.
