Ever since Corona Pandemic began, employee retention and employment
generation have inevitably become most important responsibilities of
Governments at the Centre, States & also Private Entrepreneurs. Mining,
Quarrying and Water resources management are the biggest outdoor sources of
employment besides Agriculture, for lakhs of youth, many of whom have
migrated back to their villages & towns. The mining sector has the potential to
grow to employ about 48lakh persons directly and create a total of 5 crore jobs
in mines and related ancillary industries and services, by 2025. The ratio of
direct to indirect employment in the Mining Sector is 1:10. “An investment of
US$ 1 in exploration is estimated to give a return of US$15” (Ernst and Young
Rept.-2011, p. 34). Another independent study says, that “for every rupee of
investment in mining there is an investment of Rs.12 in the downstream value
chain ancillary industries". Specially in case of gold, every tonne of gold mined
will save 55million US$ in Forex and ploughs Rs.150 to 200 Crores into the
Local Rural Economy in the form of wages, ancillary industries, supplies of
materials and machinery, skill development, rural infrastructure , education,
health care, entertainment etc., besides generating revenue to the Govt.
Therefore, mining serves to alleviate poverty to a large degree. As per
McKinsey Global Institute, India needs to create 150 million non-farm jobs by
2025, to significantly reduce poverty. The Confederation of Indian Industry
(CII) in 2011 had done a study for the Ministry of Mines and brought out a
“Skill Mapping Report”. As per this report, in the period up to 2025, there will
be a need for some 3,000 geoscientists and 40,000 mining engineers over and
above the normal supply. Achieving self-sufficiency in minerals and reducing
the dependence on import of metals and minerals, on a fast track investment
mode, are the other most important national goals set by the Hon’ble Finance &

Nigeria's Mineral Resources - Alternative to Clean Energy?CSR-in-Action
Taking a ‘peek’ into the history of Nigeria, one can be overcome with acute nostalgia for a country which had been largely sustained by agricultural and solid mineral extraction prior to the oil boom. This whitepaper highlights the current state of Nigeria's minerals, clean alternatives and Nigeria's opportunities.
Geopolitical instability (petroleum), increased complexity of policy change (mining, petroleum), uncertainty over regulations (mining, petroleum), and technically challenging physical environments (geothermal) have aggravated existing risks for the Philippine resources industry. Nevertheless, a changing landscape provides opportunities for resources companies willing to embrace a degree of risk and gain access to future growth areas - technology, business optimization, etc. that will be the key to unlocking future potential.

Reasserting the Relevance of the Geology Profession Under the Duterte Adminis...Fernando Penarroyo
A few months into his presidency, Rodrigo Roa Duterte has already created an impact in the resources industry. The mining industry experienced the biggest clampdown under the present administration when the Department of Environment and Natural Resources undertook a massive audit of the operations of mining companies resulting in numerous suspensions. The industry was not helped either by lower demand for bulk commodities combined with a bleak global outlook for production resulting in a fall in mineral prices. On the other hand, global energy investments in 2015 were also down due to a sharp fall in upstream oil and gas capital spending. Geopolitical realignment in the South China Sea has also disrupted petroleum exploration in the country despite the Philippines obtaining a favourable ruling from the Permanent Court of Arbitration. On the policy front, the Duterte administration through its ten-point socio-economic agenda seeks to expedite permitting approvals, which hopefully can ease the bottlenecks in the highly regulated resources industry. Amidst the decline in investment activity in the mining and energy industries, the labour market for the geology profession and other resources-based geoscientists is subdued. However, the profession will continue to remain relevant in the fields of environmental planning, hydrogeology, pollution control, geohazard, civil engineering and construction, and waste management while the resources industry continues to weather the storm.
It was aimed to express the definitions of different kinds of alternative and renewable energy. Additionally Turkey's situation, potentials and policies about them was examined.

In order to tackle the accelerating growth in the demand for energy, and confront any obstacles which impede the implementation of prosperous energy projects, The Master Strategy of the Energy Sector in Jordan for the Period 2007 – 2020 (“Jordan’s Energy Strategy”) has been sanctioned by the Cabinet on 7/12/2004. In both the oil and the natural gas sectors, the principle recommendation and goal of the Jordan’s Energy Strategy is to attract foreign investment to explore, develop and produce resources in open areas.
In Jordan there is no specific legislation regulating oil and gas activities, yet, the legal framework is suitable for the current volume and condition of operations in the sector. This paper will outline such regime and the oil and gas market as a whole. It will look at the historic development of the market, the current market conditions and players and the legal framework governing oil and gas activities.

Observation of Io’s Resurfacing via Plume Deposition Using Ground-based Adapt...Sérgio Sacani
Since volcanic activity was first discovered on Io from Voyager images in 1979, changes
on Io’s surface have been monitored from both spacecraft and ground-based telescopes.
Here, we present the highest spatial resolution images of Io ever obtained from a groundbased telescope. These images, acquired by the SHARK-VIS instrument on the Large
Binocular Telescope, show evidence of a major resurfacing event on Io’s trailing hemisphere. When compared to the most recent spacecraft images, the SHARK-VIS images
show that a plume deposit from a powerful eruption at Pillan Patera has covered part
of the long-lived Pele plume deposit. Although this type of resurfacing event may be common on Io, few have been detected due to the rarity of spacecraft visits and the previously low spatial resolution available from Earth-based telescopes. The SHARK-VIS instrument ushers in a new era of high resolution imaging of Io’s surface using adaptive
optics at visible wavelengths.
THE IMPORTANCE OF MARTIAN ATMOSPHERE SAMPLE RETURN.Sérgio Sacani
The return of a sample of near-surface atmosphere from Mars would facilitate answers to several first-order science questions surrounding the formation and evolution of the planet. One of the important aspects of terrestrial planet formation in general is the role that primary atmospheres played in influencing the chemistry and structure of the planets and their antecedents. Studies of the martian atmosphere can be used to investigate the role of a primary atmosphere in its history. Atmosphere samples would also inform our understanding of the near-surface chemistry of the planet, and ultimately the prospects for life. High-precision isotopic analyses of constituent gases are needed to address these questions, requiring that the analyses are made on returned samples rather than in situ.

Slide 1: Title Slide
Extrachromosomal Inheritance
Slide 2: Introduction to Extrachromosomal Inheritance
Definition: Extrachromosomal inheritance refers to the transmission of genetic material that is not found within the nucleus.
Key Components: Involves genes located in mitochondria, chloroplasts, and plasmids.
Slide 3: Mitochondrial Inheritance
Mitochondria: Organelles responsible for energy production.
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA): Circular DNA molecule found in mitochondria.
Inheritance Pattern: Maternally inherited, meaning it is passed from mothers to all their offspring.
Diseases: Examples include Leber’s hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) and mitochondrial myopathy.
Slide 4: Chloroplast Inheritance
Chloroplasts: Organelles responsible for photosynthesis in plants.
Chloroplast DNA (cpDNA): Circular DNA molecule found in chloroplasts.
Inheritance Pattern: Often maternally inherited in most plants, but can vary in some species.
Examples: Variegation in plants, where leaf color patterns are determined by chloroplast DNA.
Slide 5: Plasmid Inheritance
Plasmids: Small, circular DNA molecules found in bacteria and some eukaryotes.
Features: Can carry antibiotic resistance genes and can be transferred between cells through processes like conjugation.
Significance: Important in biotechnology for gene cloning and genetic engineering.
Slide 6: Mechanisms of Extrachromosomal Inheritance
Non-Mendelian Patterns: Do not follow Mendel’s laws of inheritance.
Cytoplasmic Segregation: During cell division, organelles like mitochondria and chloroplasts are randomly distributed to daughter cells.
Heteroplasmy: Presence of more than one type of organellar genome within a cell, leading to variation in expression.
Slide 7: Examples of Extrachromosomal Inheritance
Four O’clock Plant (Mirabilis jalapa): Shows variegated leaves due to different cpDNA in leaf cells.
Petite Mutants in Yeast: Result from mutations in mitochondrial DNA affecting respiration.
Slide 8: Importance of Extrachromosomal Inheritance
Evolution: Provides insight into the evolution of eukaryotic cells.
Medicine: Understanding mitochondrial inheritance helps in diagnosing and treating mitochondrial diseases.
Agriculture: Chloroplast inheritance can be used in plant breeding and genetic modification.
Slide 9: Recent Research and Advances
Gene Editing: Techniques like CRISPR-Cas9 are being used to edit mitochondrial and chloroplast DNA.
Therapies: Development of mitochondrial replacement therapy (MRT) for preventing mitochondrial diseases.
Slide 10: Conclusion
Summary: Extrachromosomal inheritance involves the transmission of genetic material outside the nucleus and plays a crucial role in genetics, medicine, and biotechnology.
Future Directions: Continued research and technological advancements hold promise for new treatments and applications.
Slide 11: Questions and Discussion
Invite Audience: Open the floor for any questions or further discussion on the topic.
Nutraceutical market, scope and growth: Herbal drug technologyLokesh Patil
As consumer awareness of health and wellness rises, the nutraceutical market—which includes goods like functional meals, drinks, and dietary supplements that provide health advantages beyond basic nutrition—is growing significantly. As healthcare expenses rise, the population ages, and people want natural and preventative health solutions more and more, this industry is increasing quickly. Further driving market expansion are product formulation innovations and the use of cutting-edge technology for customized nutrition. With its worldwide reach, the nutraceutical industry is expected to keep growing and provide significant chances for research and investment in a number of categories, including vitamins, minerals, probiotics, and herbal supplements.
Deep Behavioral Phenotyping in Systems Neuroscience for Functional Atlasing a...Ana Luísa Pinho
Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) provides means to characterize brain activations in response to behavior. However, cognitive neuroscience has been limited to group-level effects referring to the performance of specific tasks. To obtain the functional profile of elementary cognitive mechanisms, the combination of brain responses to many tasks is required. Yet, to date, both structural atlases and parcellation-based activations do not fully account for cognitive function and still present several limitations. Further, they do not adapt overall to individual characteristics. In this talk, I will give an account of deep-behavioral phenotyping strategies, namely data-driven methods in large task-fMRI datasets, to optimize functional brain-data collection and improve inference of effects-of-interest related to mental processes. Key to this approach is the employment of fast multi-functional paradigms rich on features that can be well parametrized and, consequently, facilitate the creation of psycho-physiological constructs to be modelled with imaging data. Particular emphasis will be given to music stimuli when studying high-order cognitive mechanisms, due to their ecological nature and quality to enable complex behavior compounded by discrete entities. I will also discuss how deep-behavioral phenotyping and individualized models applied to neuroimaging data can better account for the subject-specific organization of domain-general cognitive systems in the human brain. Finally, the accumulation of functional brain signatures brings the possibility to clarify relationships among tasks and create a univocal link between brain systems and mental functions through: (1) the development of ontologies proposing an organization of cognitive processes; and (2) brain-network taxonomies describing functional specialization. To this end, tools to improve commensurability in cognitive science are necessary, such as public repositories, ontology-based platforms and automated meta-analysis tools. I will thus discuss some brain-atlasing resources currently under development, and their applicability in cognitive as well as clinical neuroscience.

Multi-source connectivity as the driver of solar wind variability in the heli...Sérgio Sacani
The ambient solar wind that flls the heliosphere originates from multiple
sources in the solar corona and is highly structured. It is often described
as high-speed, relatively homogeneous, plasma streams from coronal
holes and slow-speed, highly variable, streams whose source regions are
under debate. A key goal of ESA/NASA’s Solar Orbiter mission is to identify
solar wind sources and understand what drives the complexity seen in the
heliosphere. By combining magnetic feld modelling and spectroscopic
techniques with high-resolution observations and measurements, we show
that the solar wind variability detected in situ by Solar Orbiter in March
2022 is driven by spatio-temporal changes in the magnetic connectivity to
multiple sources in the solar atmosphere. The magnetic feld footpoints
connected to the spacecraft moved from the boundaries of a coronal hole
to one active region (12961) and then across to another region (12957). This
is refected in the in situ measurements, which show the transition from fast
to highly Alfvénic then to slow solar wind that is disrupted by the arrival of
a coronal mass ejection. Our results describe solar wind variability at 0.5 au
but are applicable to near-Earth observatories.

3. Historical Background of Petroleum Regulations in Turkey
• 1934 Mineral Research and Exploration Institute drilled the Baspirin-1 well in Southeast Anatolia
• 1934-1954 million barrel Garzan and Raman fields discovered
• 1954 Türkiye Petrolleri A. O. established with Law no 6326 as a state economic enterprise as an integrated oil company
holding rights to explore, produce, transmit and refine the oil.
• By the same law General Directorate of Petroleum Affairs also established in order to enforce the oil sector.
• In 1984 midstream and downstream separated from the company and since then she is responsible for E&P activities.
• Since 1954 %63 of the total applications were assigned to companies
• Since 1954 total of 229 company executed petroleum exploration and production activities
• %77 of this 229 companies are foreign companies
• Since 1934 total of 207 fields discovered and discovery success is %10 which is the industry average

4. Turkey Runs on Tax and Royalty
• The petroleum policy is executed by Ministry of Energy
• The regulatory body is the General Directorate of Petroleum
Affairs
• Company is being granted a license thru application to GDPA
• Company has right to perform exploration operations themselves;
there is no carry of state or NOC
• Transfer of rights are available
• Company can sell the produced oil in arms length
• Company pays tax and royalty to the government
• Company owns the resources underground
Total of 158.1 million $

5. Turkey’s Government Take
•Turkey is one of the best
countries that the Government
take is the lowest
•There are a plenty number of
countries on World that runs the
oil business with concession
type
•In tax and Royalty (concession)
contractor interest and contract
stability increases and host
government control decreases

7. How Much Exploration Done in Black Sea
North Sea
• First 75 wells dry
• Since 1966, 33 wells had been drilled in the
Norwegian sector of North Sea and discovery had
been made in the 34th well
• In 2013 a company archived 85.000km of 2D and
125.000 km2 of 3D seismic data
• EEZ signed by Norwegian in 1977
• Industrial focus over 30 years
• More than 7000 wells drilled
Black Sea
• Since 2005, 6 wells had been drilled in the Turkey
sector of Black Sea
• The total of 2D and 3D seismic acquired in Turkey
Black Sea is 140.000km and 15.000 km2 2D and 3D
respectively.
• Black Sea EEZ signed in the year 1978 and ratified
after Russian Federation in 1997
• Before 2005 nearly 100 wells drilled.
• Frontier area for the industry
• One major discovery in the offshore Romania

10. Why To Invest in Turkey’s Black Sea
• Turkey has the advantage of tax and royalty for investors, compared to the other oil
business investment instruments
• Turkey is still the biggest market in domestic gas demand
• Turkey has the advantage of being a gas hub for gas flowing from source to
consuming industries
• In order to meet the energy consumption of the world 1,5 trillion $ investment in
needed until 2030
• Black Sea is still wildcat exploration area; where commercial quantities are
expected to lie within the deep offshore area
• Black Sea has a big advantage of agreed and signed Economic Exclusive Zone
with the regional countries
• Turkey has the biggest acreage position in Black Sea, with the deepest water
column among the regional countries
12. Creating Win Win Partnerships between IOC’s and NOC’s
1. What are the main differences between IOCs and NOCs on the
subject of their strength and/or weaknesses and how do these
differences can be used to create a synergy?
2. How do you think about the NOCs acting like IOCs? Does this makes
the partnership more beneficial? (Petrobras, KNOC, Total)
3. What are the major stressful points for NOCs when partnering with
big 10 (BP, shell, Chevron etc)? And how does this partnership can be
made beneficial for both parties?
4. What is the improvement area to be handled in the JOA and/or PSA
signed between NOCs and IOCs
5. Why partnership of IOC and NOC is very common in upstream but
less likely in midstream and downstream? How can we make this
relationship improved?
As every body knows here, fossil fuels have been ruling our lives since mankind found fire.
There had been wars setup for sharing the fossil fuel reserves of the world after the invention of modern oil industry since Colonel drake 1859
Today still fossil fuels meets the 86% of the worlds energy demand and as Turkey we are 91% dependent on fossil fuels
In the next 20 years the energy truct shows us that still fossil fuels will meet the 80% of the worlds energy demand
Turkey in oil business dates back to 1934
In 1934 the Mineral Research and Exploration Institute (MTA) drilled the first well Baspirin-1 in southeast Anatolia
She (MTA) had discovered the biggest oil fields such as Garzan, Raman, during 1934-1954
In 1954 the national oil company TPAO had been established as a state economic enterprise an integrated oil company holding the rights to explore, produce, transmit and refine the oil product. Later in 1984 upstream, midstream and downstream separated from the company and since then she is responsible for E&P activities
By the same law GDPA had been established as a regulatory body responsible for the implementation of policy to the oil business
since 1954 there had been 229 companies executed exploration and production activities in which 176 of them are foreign companies
Since 1954 %63 of the total license applications were assigned to companies
And since 1934 133 oil and 74 gas fields were discovered with a 10% succes ratio
Turkey runs oil business on tax and royalty system
In the equilateral triangle at the top corner, there is policy maker wo is the Ministry of Energy in Turkey and the policies made by the ministry is implemented to the industry by the regulatory body who is GDPA, then at the right corner the oil companies are doing E&P activities in this system. Here TPAO is treated equally with the other IOCs
In tax and royalty system the royalty is taken after the gross Prodcution and after the costs incurred then the company pays the income tax. The rest is companies own product.
In 2014 according to GDPA numbers Turkey earned 158 million $, where the biggest portion comes from the royalty.
In this system the license is granted by GDPA and companies can sell the produced oil in arms length and owns the resources underground where transfer of rights are available
Also a foreign company has right to perform the E&P operations by themselves and there is no obligation of carry of state or NOC
As you may see from the chart that Turkey is one of the best country that takes the lowest government take from E&P
There are plenty of countries on earth that runs their oil business on tax and royalty
On tax and royalty the government control decreases and contract stability and contractor interest increases

Kuzey denizinde 1966 dan önce 200 den fazla kuyu kazılmıştır. Norveçe ait kısımda ise 33 kuyu kazılmış ve 34. de petrol keşfi yapılmıştır.
When we compare the north sea with black sea the exploration activities started in 1966 in north sea where activities started in late early 2000s
The first 75 well was dry in north sea and the first 6 well in Turkey section is dry in black sea. So more to go in black sea
More than 85.000km of 2D and 125.oookm2 of 3D seismic and 4D is being acquired as seismic in north sea there is only 140.000km of 2D and 15.000km2 of 3D in Turkey section of black sea
EEZ signed in 1977 norwegian and nearly at the same years EEZ signed in black sea
There is a 30 years of industrial focus on north sea but still bla
Turkey had drilled of 4628 wells since 1934 and only 5 of them are in the deep Black Sea waters
Among the region countries Turkey is in a good position concerning the estimated resources and is willing to spend 4 billion $ investment.
These data clearly show that there are plenty of investment and drilling operations are needed in order to evaluate the basin. Still the area is a frontier area and all the political issues on the sharing of the sea has been resolved. As there is an agreed and signed EEZ within the regional countries. So there is not any political risk waiting for the investors when there is a big discovery
When we compare the north sea with black sea, we can consider black sea as barren in data. Since the 1965 there had been 7000 wells drilled in north sea but in black sea approximately 100 wells d
