Mentoring Program

Searching for a Mentor?

Are you searching for advice? Would you like to have someone with whom you may discuss your work and career?

SEG has experienced members in mining and exploration companies, government surveys, consultancies, and universities who will be happy to discuss your work and career and give you advice.

From the list below, search the SEG members who have volunteered to mentor students and young professionals beginning their career in economic geology. You are invited to contact any of them, just click their names to learn more. Some speak and write different languages, so choose whichever language is best for you. Remember, they have volunteered to help you!

Learn more about SEG committees/guidelines and governance.
