Leading International Mining Lawyer and DU Adjunct Prof. Paul Schlauch to Headline Mining Seminar in Argentina

Adjunct Prof. Paul Schlauch, who teaches International and Comparative Mining Law and is a partner in the Denver-based office of Holland & Hart, will conduct a seminar on "International Mining Agreements" at Marval O'Farrell & Mairal in Buenos Aires on March 25 and 26, 2010.

According to the firm, "The seminar is addressed to professionals and people related to the mining industry, with the goal of providing useful tools for the analysis, drafting, and negotiation of agreements frequently encountered in the mining industry." More information about the seminar can be obtained by clicking here.

Mr. Schlauch is one of the world's foremost experts on mining law. He was recently involved in a major mining agreement in the Dominican Republic (click here for details), and in the summer of 2009 he was recognized as "Mining Lawyer of the Year" by Who's Who in Legal Awards.

Mr. Schlauch's visit to Marval will allow him to re-connect with two Marval lawyers who studied under Mr. Schlauch and earned LL.M. degrees at DU: Leonardo Rodriguez and Marina Marti (both 2008 graduates).

"International and Comparative Mining Law" is taught by Profs. Schlauch and Bob Bassett, a fellow lawyer at Holland & Hart in Denver and another well-known international mining lawyer. Students who study under Profs. Schlauch and Bassett frequently remark that this course is one of the best and enriching courses they took in the graduate program curriculum.

There is no substitute for learning from the best, and Profs. Schlauch and Bassett are definitely among the best.
