An exploration geologist and a mine geologist walk into a bar. They start talking about skateboarding and base jumping. What happens next...they learn what those activities can teach them about mining and exploration.
We often think that mine and exploration geologists are almost different species. People are often good at one and find it difficult to transition to the other. Why is this? Whatever the reason, to be good at either, you probably need to know the fundamentals of both.
John Vann is the Group Head of Discovery & Geosciences at Anglo American. He provides a unique perspective having worked in, and managed teams, in mining and exploration.
