SUMMARY:2026 PESA WEBINAR SERIES: Linking Lithium\, Water\, and Policy: A Case-Based Framework for Sustainability Eduction (Sudeshna Basugupta)
DESCRIPTION:2026 PESA Webinar Series\n  \nKindly supported by Rock Flow dynamics  \n  \nThe next webinar as part of the 2026 PESA Webinar Series will take place on Tuesday 1st September 2026. \nThis live webinar will take place at: \n4pm              –     Perth\n5.30pm       –     Darwin\, Adelaide\n6pm                –    Brisbane\, Canberra\, Hobart\, Melbourne\, Sydney \nUse the calendar link on this page to add this event in to your own calendar at the correct local time for your location. \nTickets are free for members (please log in to see this) and $10 for non members. \nPlease buy your tickets and immediately follow the link in the ticket e-mail (not the calendar invite or this webpage\, which is just generic and not event specific) to set up your registration with the webinar software well in advance of the time of the talk.

This study presents a pedagogical framework that integrates technical\, environmental\, and policy perspectives to support interdisciplinary sustainability education. Focusing on case studies from the United Kingdom and Türkiye\, it explores how different lithium extraction pathways influence water consumption\, water scarcity\, and overall environmental sustainability across contrasting geological and regulatory contexts. \nIn the UK\, lithium extraction is derived from both primary hard rock sources\, such as lepidolite-bearing granites in Cornwall\, and secondary geothermal brines. In Türkiye\, the emphasis is on geothermal lithium production using Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) methods\, including adsorption\, ion exchange\, and membrane technologies. These approaches are compared with conventional evaporation-based techniques\, which involve prolonged processing times and significant water loss. \nUsing water footprint assessment\, the study evaluates total and freshwater use\, brine abstraction\, and associated environmental risks. By integrating insights from literature\, industry\, and policy sources\, the project highlights trade-offs between extraction efficiency and water impacts. The resulting framework supports the development of interdisciplinary skills and aligns sustainability education with emerging industrial and policy needs. \nBuilding on outputs from a Global Engagement Fund project and associated student research\, This work provides an adaptable\, practice‑oriented approach for strengthening sustainability‑focused education. It highlights opportunities for aligning curricula with emerging industrial\, environmental\, and societal needs.

SUMMARY:PESA WA: Alice Springs Field Trip and Core Viewing
DESCRIPTION:PESA WA ALICE SPRINGS FIELD TRIP\nPESA WA is hosting a field trip to Alice Springs in September 2026.  This is a fantastic opportunity to explore the region\, engage directly with field activities\, and deepen your understanding of the area’s geological context. \nStarting in Alice Springs\, the field trip includes three nights of 4-star accommodation\, with breakfast and lunch provided\, along with transport to and from the field. Expert guidance and commentary will be provided by Peter Haines with contributions from Fiona Burns and Simon Lang. The itinerary covers four days of Amadeus Basin geology\, split evenly between two half days viewing cores and two full days in the field. \nDuring the core workshops\, Fiona Burns (Task Fronterra) will lead participants through the Tent Hill-1 core. This well provides a near-complete section through the Lower to Middle Ordovician stratigraphy\, including the Pacoota Sandstone and overlying units. The Pacoota interval is represented by sub-units P3 to P1\, and recent work suggests deposition in a high-energy\, wave- and storm-dominated shoreface to shelf environment\, with a clear influence from nearby river systems. Simon Lang (GeoSed Consulting) will complement this by guiding the group through cores from the Mereenie Field\, including the P4 sub-unit of the Pacoota Sandstone\, offering a broader view of the full stratigraphic succession. \nIn the field\, Peter Haines (DMPE) will lead the group through the Ellery Creek section\, located approximately 90 km west of Alice Springs. This outcrop provides an exceptional\, near-continuous record of northern Amadeus Basin stratigraphy from the Tonian through to the Devonian. The field component will focus on the Larapinta Group\, comprising the Pacoota Sandstone\, Horn Valley Siltstone\, and Stairway Sandstone\, which represent the primary reservoir and source intervals for key regional accumulations such as the Palm Valley gas field\, Mereenie oil and gas field\, and the Surprise oil field. Participants can expect to see well-exposed sedimentary facies\, trace fossils\, and clear expressions of basin evolution\, with a possible extension into Devonian units depending on access conditions. \nBy combining detailed core analysis with regionally significant outcrop observations\, the trip is designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of the stratigraphy and to highlight how depositional environments and systems have evolved. \nThere will also be the opportunity to hunt for fossils\, including trilobites\, within the Horn Valley Siltstone. \nFieldtrip Leader: Peter Haines. \nContributors: Fiona Burns\, Simon Lang\, Charlie Verdel. \n \nItinerary: \nDay 1: PM: Core Store (0.5 day): Tent Hill-1 Pacoota and Stairway sandstone cores led by Fiona Burns. \nDay 2: Field Day: Ellery Creek\, Pacoota Sandstone section (shallow marine/deltaic) led by Peter Haines. \nDay 3: Field Day: Ellery Creek section (revisited) and other outcrops (stromatolites\, Dalmatian Rock) by Peter Haines and Charlie Verdel. \nDay 4: AM: Core Store (0.5 day): Mereenie Field core led by Simon Lang \n  \nCost: \n\nAttendance is open only to PESA members\, including interstate and international members.  Non-members must join PESA to attend.\n$1500.00 per person (includes accommodation\, transport to field areas\, breakfast\, lunch and digital field guide).\n\nPlease note that flights are not included in the above\, and places are limited.
