IUGS-IFG Raymond Murray Award

In 2020, the IUGS-IFG Award for Forensic Geology was renamed the IUGS-IFG Raymond Murray Award. A coin/medal has been designed in honor of "Ray," featuring his portrait, which also appears on a certificate. Ray's family has been informed and supports the award. The next Raymond Murray Award is planned to be presented at the IUGS-IFG Annual General Meeting, to be held in Rome, Italy, in 2025. Due to the special occasion, two awards will be granted in Rome—one by nomination of the IUGS-IFG Chair, and the other to the recipient with the most votes from the IUGS-IFG Committee members. A formal voting system is outlined below.
