National Geological Repository

A National Geological Repository is a specialized facility that securely stores and manages a country’s geological samples, such as rock, mineral, soil, and core samples collected for scientific research and resource assessment. It ensures these valuable materials are preserved in a controlled environment, easily accessible for study, reference, and future use. By centralizing these samples, the repository supports scientific research, resource exploration, and environmental monitoring, helping governments and scientists understand Earth’s composition and natural resources more effectively.
