Inventory and exploration of subsurface mineral resources in France

The French Geological Society is organising a webinar on the inventory and exploration of subsurface mineral resources in France, in partnership with the Mineral Industry Society (SIM - Société de l'Industrie Minérale) and with the participation of BRGM.

Since 2024, BRGM has been updating the inventory of French subsurface mineral resources. This mission, entrusted by the French government to BRGM, the French geological survey, aims to address the challenge of ensuring the supply of critical raw materials.
