Geology plays a key role throughout the mining lifecycle. In the exploration stage, geologists identify mineral prospects that are economically viable for mining. During operations, geologists guide mine development by continually studying the deposit. They analyze geophysical data to interpret ore boundaries and update geological models.
Geologists also ensure statutory compliance and aid reclamation by helping to restore mined areas. Overall, geologists provide crucial scientific understanding and information at every stage to support effective management decisions.
