GEOLOGISTS IN THE ENERGY TRANSITION

EXHIBITION/ Limiting greenhouse gas emissions requires the development of technologies that do not rely on fossil fuels. Whether it is the production of low-carbon electricity, its storage or its use, the energy transition requires large quantities of metals. Geologists are trying to understand how deposits are formed, develop new tools for mining, and work towards environmentally friendly exploitation.
The exhibition "Geologists in the energy transition" presents in a scientific and accessible way the nature and origin of the metals that are essential for the energy transition. It is designed to raise awareness of the challenges facing geologists, the criticality of raw materials and their global distribution. Enriched by the history of French and foreign deposits, it shows mineral samples from Congo, Morocco, New Caledonia, Argentina and Gabon.
This exhibition is open to people of all ages and professional backgrounds and offers guided tours.
Dark manganites, pink rhodochrosites and sparkling lepidolites... are you curious?
