Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes
Learning Outcomes of UE
At the end of the course, students will be able to:
- present and explain the different types of mineral resources (metal ores, industrial minerals and fossil fuels)
- give the main characteristics of these resources (morphology, grade, reserves, co-products, etc.)
- compare and use space and geological time distribution of ore deposits as a prospection guide
- discuss prospection methods and environmental/availability concerns about natural resources (sustainable development).
Content of UE
- Introduction;
- Magmatic deposits (Cr, Ni/Cu, MGP, Ti/V, diamonds, REE-phosphates, IOCG, gems, Sn/W, Nb/Ta, Cu/Mo, U);
- Hydrothermal and volcanic deposits (Au/Ag/Cu/Hg, VMS and SMS);
- Vein deposits (Au/Sb, PbZnBaF, BiCoNiAgU);
- Dia- and epigenetic deposits (SSC, MVT, U);
- Superficial deposits (BIFs, Fe/Mn, Al, Ni, placers);
- Coal/oil/gas fields; alternative hydrocarbons; prospects for the future regarding energy supply and CO2 concerns.
