📋 Tender Overview
The Geological, Mining and Metallurgical Institute (Ingemmet) was present at the field geology workshops aimed at students of the National Congress of Geological Engineering Students (CONAEINGEO 2023) of the National University of the Altiplano, in the region of Puno on August 25 and 26 of this year and the Seminar "Geosciences and New Directions in Applied Research" of the Daniel Alcides Carrión University in Cerro de Pasco, from 11 to 12 September.
The objective was to share theoretical information and techniques used in geological mapping, recognition of morphological, lithological and structural features which are essential for the mapping of lithostratigraphic units. In the same way, measurement techniques were shown in stratigraphic sections and structural data collection, as well as the elaboration of illustrations to be included in maps and geological reports. Likewise, the presentation of a database obtained from the outcrops, validated with a rigorous quality control, was shown.
The field workshops were led by Eng. Walther León Lecaros of the Directorate of Mineral and Energy Resources, who taught and shared his experience with the students touring rock outcrops along Ilave – Desaguadero (Puno) and in the surroundings of the Cerro de Pasco city.
Ingemmet is committed to fostering and promoting scientific knowledge, for which it participates with professionals with experience in the transfer of knowledge to students for the benefit of research projects carried out by educational institutions.
