Geologist Roger Kuhns will present “Jungle Gold,” a monologue about his experiences in French Guyana, Thursday, April 24 at 5:30 p.m. in Green House.
The talk is free and open to the public.
While conducting research in the rainforest of French Guyana, Kuhns discovered a treasure more valuable than gold. “Jungle Gold” is the true story of the drama, humor and life lessons learned from attempting to balance the opposing forces of multi-national interests and the indigenous people.
Kuhns left the mineral exploration industry many years ago and now works for a large consulting company that develops environmentally sound projects.
In his free time, Kuhns talks about his experiences in South America, Africa and Russia.
