Action for Research and Teaching Mining exploration Inclusive School

Metals are at the core of our modern societies (cell phones, batteries, building, …) and, despite advances in material recycling technology, the demand for base (e.g., Cu, Fe, Zn, Pb) and strategi...

Two main objectives are behind the ARTeMIS project: (i) The short-term objective is to educate highly-qualified and well-trained exploration geologists with high employability potential thanks to strong competences on field geology, logistics, use of new technologies, cultural and linguistic sensitivity (ii) The long term objective deals with the modern development on geology. Indeed, geology is science with strong economic and environmental impacts. Therefore, the students need to know and practice basic geology, the original natural approach, such as mineralogy, petrography, geochemistry... but more and more they need to know modern technologies such as GIS, spectroscopy, programming, data management, and so on. This inevitably leads to a large variety of jobs but will also lead to a diversity of the possible formation. These new job opportunities also open to people who were neglected by the classical geology and these new developments make geology possibility for career to physically disabled people, such as in the logistics, in sample preparation and analysis. Our project aims to investigate this neglected diversity and the possible arrangements and adaptation were able to be discussed thanks to the involved people.
