"A real melting pot of geological ideas"
Measured is RSC’s podcast series, with RSC Managing Director and Principal Consultant René Sterk conversing with a range of industry personalities. Expect a range of talking points, many with a technical theme, but also some of our industry friends sharing anecdotes about their career in the mineral exploration and mining sector and thoughts on some of the issues the industry faces.
In today’s conversation, René talks to Dr Richard Lilly, creator of the National Exploration Undercover School (NExUS) programme, administrated through the University of Adelaide. They discuss Richard's work with NExUS, the challenges in educating young people about the importance of geology and the extractive industry, and the general reshaping of the global education environment as a whole.
