The Geological Society of London has been awarding medals for significant achievement in the Earth sciences since 1831, when its Senior Medal, the Wollaston, was first awarded to William Smith.
Now the Society grants a large range of awards, including medals and funds, every year. From this page you can see a list of these, and read the
citations and replies from award winners since 2001.
The complete list of
this year's award winners are now available. You can also view the complete list of
award winners by name since 1831.
Information on how to nominate persons for 2014 Awards or Funds will be available at the beginning of May 2013.
