The geologist of the GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel is one of the world's most renowned experts on the subject of ore deposits on the ocean floor. In addition to his research, he is also active in international committees and scientific associations. For this commitment the Society of Economic Geologists (SEG) has now awarded the Ralph W. Marsden Award to Professor Hannington. He received the award during the SEG Annual Congress in Hobart (Tasmania).
The SEG was founded in 1920 and has more than 7000 members worldwide. It aims to promote interest in geology and geosciences at the intersection between basic research and commercial application.
