Call for mentors to speak to early-career Geologists

World Map

Next Gen Geo is a non-profit organization that is supporting the development of early-career geoscientists. They will be hosting a series of seminars at the University of Toronto Earth Sciences building this April, with the theme of “Passing on knowledge and skills that would be useful for junior geologists in mineral exploration“. This could be core logging, QAQC, database management, line cutting, geophysics, etc.

The target audience is senior undergraduates and recent grads that are interested in mineral exploration. This group is underemployed due to market conditions and they are looking to learn more practical skills. This is a great opportunity to “give back”. If you can’t do this in April, please pass this request on to your colleagues and associates.

The seminar room has been booked from 5 pm to 8 pm on April 19th, 26th and May 3rd. Presentations can be from 1.5 – 3 hours in length, including time for discussion and practical exercises. If you have any ideas for a relevant talk or workshop that you could give for one of the seminars, please contact Jamal Amin directly at jamal@nextgengeo.ca.
