Module title:Mining the Future
Module codeCSMM220
Module lecturers:Prof Frances Wall
Module credits:15

What raw materials will be needed in the future, where will they come from and how will they be extracted? This research-centred module will enable you to learn about what mining may look like in 10 or 20 years’ time and also learn some of the skills required to innovate and change. With lectures on current topics from researchers and leading practitioners, seminars, and your own supervised investigations, this module will help prepare you for future leadership and development roles.

Knowledge of undergraduate geology is assumed together with a preliminary knowledge of mining, such as obtained from the CSMM135 Economics, Processing & Environment modules which is a pre- or co-requisite.
