What is the difference between mineral survey and exploration and geological engineering? Employment? Graduate students.

Mineral exploration, exploration and geological engineering are two two disciplines under the discipline of geological resources and geological engineering.

The employment of these two majors varies from school to school. According to the national unified examination, mineral exploration must take mathematics in the postgraduate entrance examination, which belongs to the master of engineering, while geological engineering can take two professional courses instead of mathematics.

Mineral survey and exploration are based on geology, mathematics, technology and economics, and are closely related to mining engineering, oil and gas engineering, environmental science and engineering, management science and engineering, computer science and technology and other disciplines. Applicable industries in the field of geological engineering include: geological survey, general survey, exploration and evaluation of oil and gas and solid mineral resources, large industrial and mining enterprises and water conservancy and hydropower construction, highway and railway construction, engineering geology, hydrogeology, geological environment and geological disaster investigation, survey and monitoring, etc.

Extended data:

Exploration and geological engineering work mainly includes the following five items:

1. Collect and study existing regional geology, topography, remote sensing photos, hydrology, meteorology, hydrogeology and earthquakes, as well as engineering experience and existing survey reports;

2, engineering geological survey and mapping;

3. See Engineering Geological Surveying and Mapping and Exploration for engineering geological exploration;

4. See geotechnical test and field prototype observation, rock mechanics test and test for geotechnical test and observation;

5. Data collation and compilation of engineering geological investigation report.

Engineering geological investigation is usually carried out step by step according to the engineering design stage. Different types of projects have different stages. For small and medium-sized projects with simple engineering geological conditions and certain engineering data, the investigation stage can also be merged appropriately.
