The  36^thInternational Geological Congress (IGC) will be rescheduled from 2-8th March, to 9-14 November 2020 in NCR-Delhi at India Exposition Mart Ltd, Greater Noida-201305. 

IGCs are held quadrennially under the aegis of the International Union of Geological Sciences (IUGS). India had the privilege of organizing the 22^ndsession of International Geological Congress at New Delhi in 1964. This was the first IGC in Asia. India along with its neighboring countries won the bid for 36^thIGC in 2012 at Brisbane, Australia. With this, the IGC is returning to Indian subcontinent after a gap of 56 years.

The 36^thIGC is expected to have a congregation of more than 6000 delegates from India and abroad participating in its Science Program, Field Trips, Geo Expo, and Business Meetings. The 36^thIGC is a platform where the global geo-science community will come together to explore opportunities for scientific collaboration, networking, capacity building and showcasing the scientific findings from their country to the world geo-scientific community. It also presents a perfect stage for India to showcase its geological capabilities and present new business opportunities in the mining and metal sectors.
