We are pleased to announce that Izabela Kowalewska and Kamil Gromnicki have yesterday successfully completed the defence of their MSc theses, which were part of the BrineRIS project! Their theses dealt with the technical and formal aspects of the possibility of recovering lithium from geothermal brines from the geothermal borehole in Poland and the assessment of the lithium-bearing potential of a selected clay mineral deposit from Lower Silesia. It is worth noting that both works were prepared under the supervision of the BrineRIS project coordinator, Magdalena Worsa-Kozak. We congratulate the graduates and wish them further success!
