What are the relations and differences among engineering geology, hydrogeology and mineral geology?

Engineering geology is to learn and study geological knowledge related to engineering construction, and also involves some hydrology. Engineering geology goes to the mine only to engage in the infrastructure of the mine;

Mine geology is to learn and study geological knowledge related to mine mining, and it is also hydrology, especially for finding metal deposits, and hydrological knowledge is very important;

Hydrogeology, of course, specializes in water. The main research object is groundwater, which is relatively simple. It also involves the adverse effects of groundwater on engineering construction and mining and its prevention and control. Hydrogeology is divided into regional hydrogeology, groundwater dynamics, hydrogeology, water supply hydrogeology, soil improvement hydrogeology and other sub-disciplines, that is, water for other projects can also be engaged.

To sum up, engineering geology is engaged in engineering construction, mining geology is engaged in mineral exploitation, and then both of them will involve some hydrological knowledge when studying and applying; Then hydrogeology is specialized in water, which is more professional. Almost all kinds of projects are inseparable from the treatment of water, of course, it is only water, which has certain limitations. If many projects are small in scale, he will find some water to dispose of himself.

The above is my understanding and experience of three types of geology. If it helps you, remember to use O(∩_∩)O~.
