geology for everyone

welcome to a unique experience combining physical activity and learning. Our team specialises in providing group and (by request) personalised field classes in geology and associated physical geography at all levels of technical and physical ability. We will explain the principals of the earth sciences that influence much of modern society. You will visit several carefully selected locations each of which highlights one or more critical concepts. The findings are continuously integrated to provide a comprehensive understanding of the rocks, their geological history and socio-economic impact.

 specialist sessions on structure, volcanology, hydrocarbons and geological mapping are also available, details on request.

client testimonials

 

knowing Peter from his Chevron days we jumped at the chance of having him lead a Geological walk around our local village and beaches in Swansea for staff. Extremely insightful and interesting and a lot of things we didn’t even know existed right on our doorstep. Excellent job Peter. Look forward to catching up again and the very best of luck with your new exciting venture. John C.  Rockfield Engineering

 

“This summer (2018) I participated in Peter’s “essentials A” trip exploring the geology surrounding the Dillon reservoir. I had my two daughters (3 and 7 yrs) with me and we had a great time with Peter. Peter gave us a tour of the regional geology and explained the different rock types to us, showed us faults, and igneous intrusions (and an old abandoned mine shaft). Peter has a vast knowledge of field geology and makes this trip fun and informative. I am a geoscientist myself, and am still learning when going out in the field with Peter. Geology is his passion and he communicates it on a level that is appropriate to experts, novices and children. We had a great time out in the field and I can highly recommend the tour. My 7 yr old was very excited to learn about black shales in particular.” Andi. E
