All of them have gained a very positive experience, mainly regarding the industrial challenge, teamwork, skills sharing and management of contingencies.<\/p>\n<p>The SOLSA project reaches its fourth and last year. The teams will work on the development of the software to provide an expert system fully usable by the mining geologist from 2020 onwards.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The first mining exploration tests conducted in the SODICAPEI bauxite mine (France) have been completed, an essential step in the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":17303,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[44],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-31635","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-group","nature-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.3.1 -
