The DIGIECOQUARRY Project took part in an educational event with a heterogenous public during the Expo Minerals exhibition held at Madrid’s School of Mines and Energy on the 13th of March 2022. During this event, we presented some of the main characteristics of aggregates and quarries. In addition, we brought up several topics about digitalization, explaining the processes involved in it and presenting some practical examples involving the development of 3D models of minerals and rocks.
Expominerals is one of the most important exhibitions of raw materials in Spain. Visitors can learn about fossils, gems or meteorites from all over the world that make it the perfect place to connect with collectors, geologists and students. As a result, it is the best way to contact with kids and teenagers and illustrate them about everything related to minerals.
