From the MEI Archives #21: Indian School of Mines, 1989

One of the great pleasures of travelling to international conferences is the surprise meetings with friends and colleagues from the past.

In 1989 I spent some time at the Indian School of Mines in Dhanbad (see also blog of 3rd December 2011) as a guest of Prof. T.C. Rao, who was then head of minerals engineering.

I am hoping to catch up with Prof. Rao at next week's IMPC in New Delhi, where he is scheduled to present a plenary lecture. It would also be great to meet up with any of the staff and students who were at ISM during my visit 23 years ago.

The photos below will bring back memories of that interesting two weeks. Can anyone fill in the gaps with names, and where are they now?
