Field Trips with Geological Rigour<\/h1>\n\t
\n\t\t
\n\t\t\t

Ge\u00f3latra organises small-group field trips for specialist audiences: universities, geological societies, tour operators and serious enthusiasts. We visit and interpret specific sites of geological interest \u2014 and, in some cases, we sketch what we see too. Trips are led by a geologist with a PhD, in Spanish or English, and the whole experience can be arranged for you end to end, including accommodation and transport for the group.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n

Helena Chac\u00f3n holds a PhD in Geology, specialising in Geochemistry and Petrology, and is passionate about the countryside, nature and illustration.<\/p>\n

Trained at the University of Huelva, she has focused her research on igneous and metamorphic petrology and surface geochemistry \u2014 from the high-temperature marbles of the Aracena metamorphic belt to the behaviour of trace elements and rare earth elements in the weathering profiles of the pillow lavas at Cumbres de Enmedio.<\/p>\n

She has also spent research stays at the University of St Andrews (Scotland) and the Petrology and Mineralogy Laboratory in Nice (France), among others.<\/p>\n

She currently lives in the Sierra de Aracena y Picos de Aroche Natural Park (Huelva) and travels around the Sierra organising nature activities and guiding specialists and curious minds to geosites of particular interest. Helena explains the local, regional and global geological history in a way that anyone can follow, from an amateur to a specialist seeking scientific rigour.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
