There can be no more worthwhile activity than investigating minerals in the outdoors environment in which they occur.  \nField trips involve time spent in outdoors activities, exposure to natural hazards, travel risks in time and place, personal exertions, physical hazards of moving across roads, paddocks and outcrops or into pits.  \nNevertheless Society members are responsible natural science enthusiasts, neither chronically phobic nor foolhardy. They are social and keenly interested mineral enthusiasts who enjoy sharing their knowledge and skills.  \nAs a Society; field trips are one of the most engaging, rewarding, risky and expensive activities for most members  \nThe following series of documents drafts were developed in recognition of a need to ‘coach’ new young enthusiastic leaders and to enable and encourage existing members to offer field trip experiences to other Society members.  \nThese documents are part of a system to enable and encourage field trips to study minerals. They are supplements for mature judgement and experience and not just a bureaucratic or administrative burdensome replacement of wisdom in the field.  \nHOW DO FIELD TRIPS RELATE TO MINERALOGICAL SOCIETY OBJECTIVES?  \nTo inform and refresh Society members and field trip participant’s knowledge of:  \n1. How DO Field trips relate to the Objectives of the Mineralogical Society?  \n2. What is expected on a natural science Field Trips planned and organised by the Mineralogical Society?  \nThe objectives of the Mineralogical Society that may be ‘satisfied’ by undertaking Field trips are as follows:  \na. Disseminate knowledge of minerals, their occurrence and associations  \nb. Establish and maintain a register of mineral species and their occurrences in Western Australia  \nc. Increase knowledge of related fields of earth science  \nd. Keep members abreast of development in mineralogy  \ne. Promote the conservation of the geologically unique, and the environment in general  \nf. Foster a sense of cooperation and understanding between individuals, institutions, and resource companies in the field of mineralogy  \nWHAT about Managing Hazards and Risks on Field Trips?  \nNo activity and certainly no field activity are without hazards and risks. Risk management is about maintaining the essential objectives of approved activities whilst avoiding or minimising the less acceptable impacts. The draft Society Field trip risk management system is NOT about what we can’t do ; or the risks we take; it is about what we CAN DO and how we operate for maximum satisfaction of members and society.  \nCan we reassure Society members, participants and their families that appropriate care has been taken in planning, preparation and conduct of any fieldtrip?  \nPrincipal requirements are to outline in a succinct manner:  \nA. Society field trip objectives and  \nB. What is expected of Trip Leaders? and  \nC. What is expected of Members and other Field Trip Participants?  \nA. Field Trip Objectives  \n• Appreciate Society Objectives in providing a safe and enjoyable experience in a natural environment  \n• Society will support and develop members who would go out of their ‘comfort zone’ and offer to plan. Lead and conduct outdoors study of mineral occurrences for other Members.  \n• Society will approve field trip, check hazard identification process and risk management plans  \n• Society is responsible to advertise and accept or decline / reject field trip participants’ applications  \n• Society will maintain public liability and professional insuranc","cbCaibnOie6I7EVl","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaibnOie6I7EVl","pdf",498748,37,"English","# Why have field trips?\n# How do field trips relate to mineralogical society objectives?\n## Society objectives supported by field trips\n# What about managing hazards and risks on field trips?\n## Principal requirements\n# Field trip responsibilities\n## Field trip objectives\n## Trip leaders expectations\n## Field trip participant expectations","[{\"question\":\"Why does the document encourage mineral field trips?\",\"answer\":\"Field trips help members study mineral occurrences in outdoor environments, collect specimens, and build knowledge about minerals and related earth science topics.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the document connect field trips to the Mineralogical Society objectives?\",\"answer\":\"It lists objectives such as disseminating mineral knowledge, maintaining a register of mineral species and occurrences, advancing related earth science knowledge, keeping members updated, promoting conservation, and fostering cooperation in the field.\"},{\"question\":\"What is the approach to managing hazards and risks on field trips?\",\"answer\":\"Risk management focuses on maintaining essential approved activity objectives while avoiding or minimizing unacceptable impacts, supported by planning, hazard identification, control actions, and clear communication.\"}]","Guidelines to Planning Field Trips - Draft Society Guide to Field Trips | PDF",1790377052,13]
