What's on offer? Geoscientists
Geoscientists may specialise as a field/exploration geologist, geochemist/mineralogist/petrologist,geomorphologist,hydrogeologist/ hydrologist, mathematical geologist, mine geologist, palaeontologist, petroleum, stratigrapher or a structural geologist.
Geologist Geologists provide advice and expertise on the geological aspects of development and production in mine,
pit and quarry sites. Geologists study the structure and composition of rocks and minerals by analysing samples and conducting surveys, and their findings help to assure the quality of the minerals, rocks and gems extracted, to assess the commercial potential, viability and impact of operations. Engineering geologists identify and try to solve problems involving soil, rock and groundwater, and design structures in and below the ground, using the principles of earth science and engineering. Geological engineering includes a number of ground engineering specialities such as geotechnical engineering, land remediation, rock mechanics, groundwater hydrology and engineering geology.
Personal qualities required include good scientific and technical skills, have good observational skills, able to pay close attention to detail and accuracy, have a methodical approach to problem solving, and be able to take responsibility for making decisions.
