Empowering Future Geologists
The Geology Department at the University of Agadez has received significant support from the Société Minière de DASA – SOMIDA.
A donation consisting of a laptop computer and a high-definition optical microscope was presented by SOMIDA to the Geology Department team led by Dr A. Wahid SANI, in the presence of the University’s Rector.
This equipment,’ said Dr SANI, ’will be extremely useful for the practical training of our students, as well as for academic research to determine the mechanisms by which mineralisation occurs in geological strata, and to improve the region’s mining potential.
The Chairman and CEO of Global Atomic, who was in Niamey, honoured the brief ceremony with his presence and said he was convinced that geological and mining research is a lever for development, and that more young people should get involved in this field.
