Adrian is an economic geologist with the MBMG. His current work involves researching Montana's mineral deposits with a specific target for critical minerals. These are minerals, particularly ores for metals, that are necessary for us to enjoy a high-tech way of life. His previous research has involved rare earth element deposits and the mineralogy of diamond. He has worked as both a university professor and as a mineral industry geologist.
