Transfer of the vast knowledge on geological explorations existing in the developed countries, to the less developed countries such as Republic of Kosovo, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Ukraine

Equip the staff of the Geological Surveys’ of these countries and students of University of Mitrovica how to use efficiently high quality laboratory equipment. The consortium’s approach to implement the projects objectives is based on the knowledge of the economic, social and education situation in the selected countries, as well as level of expertise in the geological exploration area. The consortium consists of partners with vast experience in the selected region and awareness of the needs of the target groups in these regions.  Universities that are members of the consortium will build up a detailed and comprehensive training program in accordance with European standards.  The program will consist of two main segments, such as theoretical and practical segments of the program; ‐ The theoretical part will be divided in two phases: First phase will describe modern concepts of mineral exploration and the second phase focuses on the details of applied methods that will be developed by the other project, such as isotopic and fluid inclusion studies, hyper‐spectral analysis, creation of Lithostratigraphic 3D models and so on.  ‐ The practical part of the program will include laboratory exercises, field training Is also to be designed in accordance with needs of students of Faculty of Geosciences ‐ University of Mitrovica and employees of the Geological Survey’s in both countries. Laboratory works will be designed by all partners in the consortium to make sure that program is relevant to the needs of the target groups. The industry partner of the consortium will provide the project with access to the concession areas where field exercises will be conducted.
