We are seeking a Master’s student for a project on the tectonic significance of magmatism at the edge of the Rocky Mountains, starting in Fall 2023 at the New Mexico Bureau of Geology and Mineral Resources (NMBMGR) at New Mexico Tech (NMT). A belt of Cenozoic igneous occurrences that stretches from the Colorado Front Range to southeastern New Mexico has received little study, presenting excellent opportunities for new fundamental research, particularly for graduate students.

Archiving data and housing geological collections is an important role the Bureau of Geology plays in improving our understanding of the geology of New Mexico. Our Geologic Information Center has made many of our archived photographs and documents available online via a dedicated portal that uses ResourceSpace, an open-source digital asset management system. Additional archival materials are regularly being added to the system, so be sure to check back frequently.
If you have historical documents, photographs or mine maps and would like to contribute to our archives (or allow us to copy), please contact our Geological Archives Coordinator, Amy Trivitt.
