Thank you to the team at Gibraltar and Taseko Mines Limited for the awesome opportunity to learn about the different careers in mining!
Educating the Future - Taseko's Partnership with MineralsEd Taseko is proud to be a partner in MineralsEd’s Regional Spotlight: A Career in the Mining Industry Series! The initiative is part of Taseko’s ongoing commitment to foster education and career opportunities in the mining sector for young people. Students were invited to Gibraltar for an immersive experience at an operating mine site. This hands-on encounter allowed them to gain a deeper understanding of mining careers. The turnout was exceptional, with Gibraltar hosting 50 students and their teachers from the Cariboo-Chilcotin (SD 27), Quesnel (SD 28), and Barriere (SD 73) school districts.

Inspiring future geoscientists! 👷 👷♂️ Josh Sellars, David Newton and Stephanie Schweighardt, P.Geo. from the Seequent Vancouver office spent yesterday at the MineralsEd BC Mining Month Community Fair showing our young people that there's more to geology than just rocks! #VisibleGeology, our free web application for teaching and exploring geological concepts was a hit amongst students. The custom topography tool got the most praise for its similarity to #Minecraft. A preview of Visible Geology is available now, with the official launch coming next month. Give it a go yourself: https://lnkd.in/gihHUuF7
