Since 1933, the Wyoming State Geological Survey has performed the important and critical function of interpreting Wyoming’s complex geology. We do not rest on our past accomplishments, but instead, remain steadfast in our goal to apply new geoscience technology and techniques to address current and future geology-related issues and challenges. Our mission is to promote the beneficial and responsible development and use of Wyoming’s geologic, mineral and energy resources while seeking to understand, characterize and inform the public about geologic hazards.
