TICKETS ON GENERAL SALE 29 AUGUSTA Journey Through Minerals, Greed and Wonder
Philip Marsden traces the dazzling achievements and dark consequences of our ability to extract from the earth – minerals which generated a leap forward in technology, producing amazement and wonder, but also destruction and greed. From his homeland of Cornwall, Marsden travels eastwards into Europe, uncovering stories of potent resources, from iron-rich meteorites to radium, mercury and gold. As he travels, he explores precious seams of ideas, and those who pursued them – from Paracelsus to Marie Curie.
An illustrated talk.
