About us

The Geological Survey of Slovenia (Geološki zavod Slovenije - GeoZS) is a multidisciplinary public research institute that operates in various fields of geoscience and conducts basic research and applied activities in Slovenia and abroad, as well as public services in support of the operation of the Republic of Slovenia and the European Union. The GeoZS acquires, stores, interprets and makes available geological data required by the state and society. We are engaged in research on both national and international levels and cooperate with similar organisations in Slovenia and abroad. The GeoZS takes an active part in various EU programmes focused on sustainable living, climate action, as well as efficient and sustainable use of resources and raw materials. We work hard to provide universal accessibility and application of expert knowledge in the society and the economy, transfer research results into practical application, popularise science, spread scientific culture, and raise public awareness. The GeoZS aims for its name to become synonymous with the knowledge of everything that can be found beneath the Earth’s surface. While our top priority is research, we are also creating an environment that will allow efficient transfer of theoretical knowledge into practice, both in Slovenia and abroad. In the long run, three research programmes will continue to form the core of our research: Regional Geology, Groundwater & Geochemistry, and Mineral Resources.

  • V oktobru je bil izpeljan že 2. nacionalni dogodek projekta »𝗦𝗣𝗢𝗭𝗡𝗔𝗝 - 𝗣𝗼𝗱𝗽𝗼𝗿𝗮 𝗽𝗿𝗶 𝘂𝘃𝗮𝗷𝗮𝗻𝗷𝘂 𝗻𝗮č𝗲𝗹 𝗼𝗱𝗽𝗿𝘁𝗲 𝘇𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗼𝘀𝘁𝗶 𝘃 𝗦𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗷𝗶«, pri katerem kot del konzorcija sodeluje tudi GeoZS. 🤝 Rdeča nit dogodka so bili raziskovalni podatki in podatkovno skrbništvo. 🔍📋 🗣️ Zvrstili so se številni zanimivi govorci, s katerimi smo odpirali teme, kot so: ✔️ implementacija in monitoring odprte znanosti v raziskovalnih organizacijah, ✔️ učinki, ki jih odpiranje podatkov prinaša v javnem sektorju in gospodarstvu, ✔️ pravna vprašanja, povezana z odprtim dostopom do podatkov. 💬 »Slovenija je lani dosegla 15. mesto glede na vprašalnik Evropske komisije o pripravljenosti odpiranja podatkov. Po kazalniku OECD pa je zasedla 7. mesto. To si lahko štejemo za izjemen uspeh.« Mag. Aleš Verčič, certificirani podatkovni skrbnik 💬 »Razvoj in izvajanje upravljanja z raziskovalnimi podatki zahtevata čas in pogosto tudi spremembo kulture v organizaciji.« Dr. Liise Lehtsalu, Research Data Alliance 💬 »Odprtost je v najglobljem bistvu znanosti. In v znanosti skoraj ni alternative kot sprejeti načela FAIR.« Dr. Boštjan Golob, podpredsednik Rektorske konference #SPOZNAJ #NOO #NextGenerationEU #EUsredstva #MVZI #Podatki #OdprtaZnanost

  • As part of the ERASMUS+ programme, the Mineral Resources and Geophysics Unit of LNEG welcomed Barbara Čeplak, a young researcher from GeoZS, to the Aljustrel hub, Portugal. Throughout October, Barbara focused on the geochemical analysis of tailings and stream sediments in the Aljustrel Mining Park, using portable X-ray fluorescence equipment to map metals and their dispersion patterns. Barbara is a PhD student specialising in the geochemistry of the sediments of the Mura River. During this exchange, she was able to expand her knowledge of geochemistry and mineral resources and at the same time visit the mining areas of Lousal and Mina de S. Domingos. 🙏 To the LNEG team for their support and scientific supervision. Read more at https://lnkd.in/g3EVnTJP
