No longer offered. It’s in Waterloo’s scanned calendars from 1991–92 to 1994–95 (before that, 1973–74 to 1989–90 used the number for Economic Geology); the 1995–96 to 2023–24 calendars are on ucalendar.

Diverse exploitable resources: metals, rocks, fuels, soils, and water, and their use by civilizations. Geology and occurrence of resources in the earth; concentration and exploitation. Impact of alternatives on society and environment. Laboratory involves geological applications, sampling methods, and ore mineral suites from mines and quarries.

As printed in the 1991–92 to 1994–95 calendars, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original. Later calendars (1995–96 on) aren’t on uwloo.
