Mining Engineering Student Parade and Competition V (MINESPACE V) is a national mining competition. This activity was organized by the Mining Student Association of the Faculty of Engineering, Hasanuddin University (PERMATA FT-UH). Paper Competition is among competition during MINESPACE V where participants have to write scientific articles. This competition was held with the hope of increasing the ability and understanding of mining engineering students in Indonesia in channeling creativity in the form of scientific writing. This paper competition consists of several stages, including abstract selection, full paper selection, and the final stage. In the final stage, there were three teams that passed, which should present their presentation at the Faculty of Engineering, Hasanuddin University, Makassar. One of the three teams is the Amethyst team from ITB. The Amethyst team consisted of 3 students from the Mining Engineering department of ITB, namely Jerhikma (12118070), Muthia Nabila Tsamara Firtania (12118059), and Shania Ariesta (12118064).
The Amethyst team participated in several events in Makassar, including presentations, fun trips and closing events. The presentation was held on May 15, 2022 at the Faculty of Engineering, UNHAS. The title of the paper that was presented was “Analysis of the Potential Application of In situ leaching Mining Methods on Uranium Deposits in Sibolga, Central Tapanuli”. This paper contains an initial review of the application of in situ leaching technology for uranium mining in Indonesia, especially in the Sibolga area, Central Tapanuli. This paper reviews the permeability of uranium deposits and their effect on the technical application of the in situ leaching mining method. In addition, an analysis of the environmental impact of the in situ leaching method was carried out. In general, the In situ leaching method is carried out by injecting a solution underground to dissolve the ore and then the dissolved ore will be pumped to the surface. The in situ leaching method is an economical and sustainable method, but is strongly influenced by the sediment permeability factor. This paper was guided by the lecturer from Earth Resource Exploration Research Group, Faculty of Mining and Petroleum Engineering ITB Dr. Andy Yahya Al Hakim. Then on May 16, 2022, the Amethyst Team took part in a fun trip, namely visiting several tourist destinations in Makassar, namely Fort Rotterdam, La Galigo Museum, City Museum, 99 Dome Mosque and Losari Beach. Then in the evening, a closing ceremony was held as well as the announcement of the results of the paper competition, where the Amethyst Team managed to won the 2nd place.

Hybrid Lecture Activities in the Pandemic Period Mining Engineering Undergraduate Study Program FTTM-ITB
Online Guest Lecture Invitation Via Zoom Meeting Friday 5 February 2021
On Monday, August 5, 2019, ITB mining engineering students held a field lecture to Karangsambung, Kebumen. This field lecture was attended by 87 students of Mining Engineering class 2017. 2 students from class 2016 along with 16 assistants and 19 lecturers. This field lecture took place from August 5, 2019 to August 10, 2019. Students and their assistants traveled from Bandung to Kebumen on August 5, 2019. On the second and third days, August 6-7 2019 students started the activity by dividing into 2 groups. , the first group walked towards the north and the other group walked towards the south. The next day, the group that had headed north then walked to the south area, and vice versa. Several observation locations in the southern area include the Kali Gending dam (observation of the layering of claystone, sandstone and tuff), the location of scaly claystone, the foot of Bukit Jatigulung (observation of the contact between claystone and limestone which causes springs due to differences in permeability). , Bukit Jatibungkus(observation of olisostorm formation of limestone on clay rock), Bukit Pesangrahan (observation of conglomerate sedimentary rock outcrops), Kali Jebug (observation of burning effect on clay due to intrusion of diabase igneous rock) and Lok Ulo River (observation of alluvial deposits dam grain size gradations and changes in river flow).
For observation locations in the northern area, among others, are Mandala River (observation of fault breccias and measurement of geological structures), Luk Ulo River (observation of phyllite outcrops), former marble mining sites (observation of marble outcrops), pucagan serpentinite locations (observation of serpentinite rocks which are metamorphic rock from peridotite), Kali Muncang (observation of pillow lava which is above the interspersed red claystone and chert) and Kali Brengkok (observation of mica schist outcrop which is an ocean floor rock which is allegedly the oldest rock on the island of Java). In addition to making observations, participants were also asked to determine the position at each location by way of orientation on the map using a compass and GPS.
On the fourth day, August 8, 2019, students carried out scanline measurements and mapping using the Total Station tool. Scanline measurements were carried out on columnar joints at Mount Parang. This scanline measurement aims to determine the general direction of the joint as well as the RQD (Rock Quality Designation) and RMR (Rock Mass Rating) values of the rocks in Mount Parang. Mapping with the Total Station was carried out in the rice fields next to the LIPI Karang Connect campus. Mapping is done by finding the coordinates of the firing point from two known benchmark coordinates. The number of shooting points whose coordinates will be determined is about 200 points. The coordinates of each of these points will later be plotted in the surfer application to be used as a contour map. On the fifth day, August 9 2019, students conducted excursions on the Lok Ulo, Bukit Dakah and Bukit Pentulu Indah rivers. At Sungai Lok Ulo, students were asked to interview sand miners so that students could understand how the community mining system or small mines work. At Dakah Hill and PentuluIu Indah Hill, students observed the morphology of the areas they had visited in the previous days.
Attached is the documentation for the Karang Connect Field Lecture 5 – 10 August 2019:
Monday 29 July 2019, the Handover of Field Lecture Equipment Assistance was held from the ITB Mining Engineering Alumni Association (IA TA ITB) to support the practicum process or field lectures for Mining Engineering ITB students, where this tool can also be used for activities that will will take place in the near future, namely field lectures to Karang Connect.
