Artisanal and small-scale mining (ASM) comes with significant challenges, especially since this kind of mining typically lacks regulation and can be socially and environmentally harmful. But ASM also plays a critical role in supplying the world with minerals vital for decarbonization, which is one reason why a study led by SEAS Assistant Research Scientist Brandon Marc Finn argues that ASM should be embraced.

The Julia Elkin Conservation Leadership Award has been established in memory of Elkin, a member of the SEAS community who graduated in 2015. Elkin passed away on February 25 after being struck by a car while jogging in Berkeley, California, and sustaining a traumatic brain injury. With generous support from the Wyss Foundation and U-M, an endowment has been established with a $200,000 gift that aims to honor Elkin’s memory by supporting students with interests similar to hers, enabling them to participate in a summer internship experience focused on U.S. land conservation.
