It is our great pleasure to invite you to participate in the conference "GEOLOGICA CARPATHICA 70" that will be organized to celebrate the 70th Anniversary of the foundation of the journal Geologica Carpathica. The conference will provide opportunities to present and share the latest geological findings from orogenic belts during three days (October 9–11, 2019). The conference contributions will be published in conference proceedings that will consist of extended abstracts. Importantly, the conference represents a tribute to the 100th anniversary of the birth of Academician Bohuslav Cambel who significantly contributed to the development and international recognition of the Geologica Carpathica.
