Abstract

From the back cover: "These are the memories of the people who founded, guided and led CSIRO's Chemical Engineering stream before it converged with Mineral Products. It is about people, not products and processes. But the legacy of all their efforts lives on in products, processes and profits, in memories, minds and machines. Australia, and the world, is a better place because of them."

Introduction by Dr Geoff Garrett, CSIRO Chief Executive, c2005: "Celebrating the journey. What is it that makes a journey worthwhile? For many, it is the people, their experiences and their insights that will prove most memorable. For CSIRO Minerals, it is these factors combined with a true dedication to enriching the future of all Australians. CSIRO Minerals was formed in 1995 with the merger of two long-standing CSIRO divisions - the Division of Mineral Products and the Division of Mineral and Process Engineering. The merger brought together a range of remarkable people bound by a common purpose - a prupose that has since seen them make further significant contributions to the mineral industry throughout Australia and the world. This book is a celebration of the journey of one of those Divisions - CSIRO Chemical Engineering - to 1995, and of the ambitious pursuit of scientific excellence and the people that made it possible. We all look forward to the next stage of our journey in serving this critical industry in Australia."
