For further information, please contact: Prof. Nikolai Lebovka Head of Department Physical Chemistry of Disperse Mineral Institute of BioColloid Chemistry Kiev, Ukraine lebovka@gmail.com https://sites.google.com/site/nlebovka/ By Nikolai Lebovka March / 2014 UNITED STATES OF AMERICA THE CLAY MINERALS SOCIETY (NORTH AMERICA) - CMS The Clay Minerals Society’s (CMS) 50th Annual Meeting was held in Urban-Champaign, Illinois from 6-10 October 2013. The theme of the meeting was appropriately called “50th Anniversary of The Clay Minerals Society”. The general chair of the meeting was Joseph Stucki, with Stephen Altaner, Field Trips Chairman and Stephen Guggenheim, Program Chairman. Dr. Stephen Guggenheim, Professor, University of Illinois at Chicago, received the highest award of The CMS, the Marilyn and Sturges W. Bailey Distinguished Member Award. His lecture was entitled “New X-ray environmental instrumentation for studying solids in solid-liquid-gas systems under confining pressures at elevated temperatures”, with A.F. Koster van Groos. George E. Christidis, Professor, Technical University of Crete, received the Marion L. And Chrystie M. Jackson Mid-Career Clay Science Award and presented a lecture entitled “Smectite heterogeneity in bentonites: The key to interpret the unique physical and chemical properties of these materials”. The George W. Brindley Lecture was presented by Andrey G. Kalinichev, Professor, Ecole des Mines de Nantes, and entitled: “Tackling the nanoscale structural and compositional diversity of clay-water interfaces in molecular simulations: Recent progress, challenges, and opportunities”. The Pioneer in Clay Science Award was presented to Dr. Thomas J. Pinnavaia, Professor Emeritus, Michigan State University, who gave a lecture entitled “Silicate intercalation chemistry: A forty year odyssey”. There were a total of 180 oral presentations, 36 posters, and 4 award/lecture presentations, (total = 220). The oral sessions were divided into fifteen symposia:
The pre-meeting field trip was to Starved Rock, Buffalo Rock, and Matthiessen State Parks and the post-meeting trip was to the Morrow Plots, Urbana Moraine and the Fithian illite locality. The pre-meeting trip examined the anticlinal structure underlying Matthiessen and the beautiful water-worn river gorges formed at the end of the last ice age. The latest CMS Workshop volumes are available for purchase (member prices are discounted from the listed price, list price shown). Order forms and other information may be obtained at http://cms.clays.org/publications.html Recent Workshop volumes are:
The Clay Minerals Society publishes a Clay Glossary, and this is located on the CMS website. The 51st Annual Meeting of The Clay Minerals Society will be held 17-21 May 2014 in College Station, TX at Texas A & M University. See the CMS website at: http://www.clays.org/

2. Meetings in 2013 Our first ‘Annual’ Research in Progress meeting at Durham on March 26th (organised by Chris Greenwell, the Group’s Vice Chair) went extremely well. 35 people took part and the presentations, which covered a broad spectrum of interests, were enthusiastically given and received. It was interesting to see several people who had dropped out of the Clay Minerals Group (CMG) fold in recent years and also new people (to whom it was a surprise that Mineralogical Society was interested in this ‘hi tech stuff’). The meeting went so well that we will have another in Durham in March 2014, in collaboration with the Environmental Mineralogy Group of the Mineralogical Society. Members of the CMG helped organise and contributed to the Mineralogical Society meeting - ‘Minerals for Life’ (Edinburgh, 17th - 19th June) - contributing mostly to Theme 2 (Functional Materials). Our first industrial George Brown Lecture was given by Jon Phipps (Imerys Minerals). CMG also sponsored the meeting/ speakers. Members of the CMG Committee also organised a session at the British Sedimentological Research Group meeting in Hull in December. In the near future the Committee will be discussing at least one more meeting in 2014, preferably involving other collaborating groups/organizations. 3. CMG-Sponsored Activities: CMG sponsored a keynote at the Cements and Concrete Science 2013 meeting in Portsmouth. Richard Ball (U Bath) spoke on ‘Hydraulic lime mortars – a study of mechanical properties’. 4. Euroclay 2015 Steve Hillier and a well defined Euroclay group have continued to make good progress in working up the Conference arrangement, speakers, supporters etc. John Adams and Simon Kemp February / 2014 8.

Guggenheim, Chair, AIPEA Nomenclature Committee February / 2014 10. Obituary: Max Merle Mortland (1923-2013) P A perusal at the previous editions of AIPEA Newsletter shows several references of Prof. Mortland’s colaboration in AIPEA activities as well as in National or Regional Societies / Groups around the world. He had contributed as keynote speaker, teacher and / or lecturer in many technical events. He served as AIPEA Editor-in-Chief by the period 1975-1978. During this tenure, he and Prof. Farmer were responsible by the edition of the Proceedings of the Sixth International Clay Conference held in Oxford (UK), and made available in 1978. He also was participant of several activities of AIPEA and some are mentioned in the old AIPEA newsletter, as for example his cooperation as a member of the Nominating Committee in the year 1983. AIPEA would like to express its gratitude to Prof. Mortland by his warm cooperation and joint the international community in this plain tribute, sending sincere condolences to Professor Mortland's wife, children and family.

rof. Max Merle Mortland, retired Distinguished Professor of Soil Science and Geology at Michigan State University, passed away on July 29th, 2013, at the age of 90. He was an enthusiastic clay scientist and recognized member of the world clay science community. His main activities were deeply linked to The Clay Minerals (North American) Society and from them he received both the Distinguished Member Award in 1988 and the Pioneer in Clay Science Lecture Award in 1996. More information about his work and main scientific achievements was recently published by Pinnavaia (2013). Here we would like to highlight his main contributions as AIPEA active member during his long career as scientist.
