The BLM Utah department is offering this grant to partner with an organization to develop educational resources about unique geologic features, history, and locatable mineral resources on lands administered by BLM. This grant is for the purpose of increasing public knowledge and awareness of Utah’s rich mineral heritage. The selected recipient will collaborate with BLM Utah to identify key geologic points of interest and suggest innovative formats, media, and tools to create engaging educational materials. The focus will be on federally defined locatable minerals, such as gold, silver, and uranium, to support public education and mineral resource management efforts for the benefit of educators and the broader community.
