Visit BASF and FEM
The preliminary programme for GOLD2009 will be announced in a few weeks. Those of you planning to attend the conference should take the opportunity to visit two organisations, the world’s largest chemical company BASF and the world’s leading research institute on the precious metals, FEM.
The BASF site at Ludwigshafen is immense – virtually a stand alone town! If you have an interest in the industrial application of precious metal catalysts and wish to see where gold can be used in the future, the tour is a highly recommended.
Since 1922, FEM (the Research Institute for Precious Metals and Metals Chemistry) in Schwäbisch Gmünd, Germany has been an independent

non-profit research centre focusing on the electrochemistry, metallurgy, materials science and surface technology of the precious metals.
Booking for these tours can be found on the registration page of the GOLD 2009 website.
