How do they match: Geoscientists, Except Hydrologists and Geographers

  • Geoscientists, Except Hydrologists and Geographers

  • Mine Geologist
  • Mining Production Geologist
  • Core Analysis Operator

  • Study the composition, structure, and other physical aspects of the Earth. May use geological, physics, and mathematics knowledge in exploration for oil, gas, minerals, or underground water; or in waste disposal, land reclamation, or other environmental problems. May study the Earth's internal composition, atmospheres, and oceans, and its magnetic, electrical, and gravitational forces. Includes mineralogists, paleontologists, stratigraphers, geodesists, and seismologists.

  • Design geological mine maps, monitor mine structural integrity, or advise and monitor mining crews.
  • Determine ways to mitigate the negative consequences of mineral dust dispersion.
  • Develop ways to capture or use gases burned off as waste during oil production processes.
  • Inspect construction projects to analyze engineering problems, using test equipment or drilling machinery.
  • Investigate the composition, structure, or history of the Earth's crust through the collection, examination, measurement, or classification of soils, minerals, rocks, or fossil remains.
  • Locate and estimate probable natural gas, oil, or mineral ore deposits or underground water resources, using aerial photographs, charts, or research or survey results.
  • Plan or conduct geological, geochemical, or geophysical field studies or surveys, sample collection, or drilling and testing programs used to collect data for research or application.
  • Prepare geological maps, cross-sectional diagrams, charts, or reports concerning mineral extraction, land use, or resource management, using results of fieldwork or laboratory research.

  • Interpret research or operational data.
  • Monitor construction operations.
