Blasting Through Barriers: MGE Builds Future of Mining With Varied Perspectives

UA mining engineering students come from all over the world, from the mineral-rich deserts of Chile to the alluvial diamond deposits of Angola, from the iron ore-filled plateaus of India to the copper mines of our very own Arizona.

A new series of articles called "Blasting Through Barriers" explores the way MGE students – including undergrads Edson Guebe and Miguel Pugmire, grad students Talita Duarte and Guarav Gupta, and alumni Ana Ingstrom and Jeff Tysoe – are defying expectations about who mining engineers are and what they do.
