Le projet/The project
Notre projet d'étude s'intéresse aux étapes de développement d'une mine. Le monde de la géologie est peu connu et notre projet tentera d'expliquer comment un projet minier voit le jour. De la prospection initiale au travail scientifique du géologue, suivi des études d'ingénierie, d'impact environnemental, de responsabilité sociale et finalement de faisabilité bancaire, jusqu'à la première coulé du minerais, notre projet d'étude aura pour but de démystifié cette industrie. Pour y arriver, nous suivrons une équipe de géologue à travers les processus de développement d'un projet minier pendant trois semaines. Notre projet se déroulera au Burkina Faso et la compagnie qui nous offre ce stage se nomme Gondwana Gold, une compagnie canadienne d'exploration minière. Nous aurons de plus l'opportunité de visiter des mines en opération dont la mine Mana de la société canadienne Semafo.
Our research project focuses on how geologists use investigational skills in their work. The world of geology is not well known and our project will attempt to explain how a mining project come along. From initial prospection to scientific work of geologist, fallowed by engineering studies, social responsibility, environmental study and bankable feasibility study until the first cast of ore, our research project will aim to demystify this industry. To achieve this, we will follow a team of geologists through the process of mine development for three weeks. Our project will take place in Burkina Faso and the company that offered us this internship is called Gondwana Gold, a Canadian based exploration company. We will also have the opportunity to visit some mines already in operation.

Le documentaire/The documentary
Notre projet de recherche aura la forme d’un documentaire vidéo. Ce type de média offre l’expérience la plus complète de ce que nous voulons partager. Nous serons en mesure de présenter des images des étapes nécessaires au développement d’une mine. Ce documentaire illustrera les différentes étapes d’un projet, les bénéfices économiques pour les populations, jusqu’aux adaptations sociales de leur société autour de la mine.
Our research project will take the form of a video documentary. This form of media offers the most complete experience of what we want to share. We will be able to present image of steps needed to achieve the creation of the mine. The documentary will illustrate all the dimensions of such a project, from the economic benefits on the population to the consequent social adaptation of their society.
