He has over 25 years of experience managing geologic investigation s in the areas of economic geology\, natural resource stewardship\, envir onmental geology\, waste disposal and geologic hazards. As state geologis t\, Gillman works to develop policy and strategy that benefits Missouri's interests at the state and federal level related to geologic and water r esource issues.\n\n\nHis presentation will focus on critical minerals ess ential for current and emerging technology in energy\, communications\, a nd national defense. Right now\, the U.S. is 100% dependent on imports fo r 21 critical mineral commodities and at least 50% dependent on imports o f another 28. Undiscovered deposits of at least some of these critical mi nerals almost certainly exist in the United States. However\, mineral exp loration is hampered by the lack of modern geological\, geophysical\, and topographic data. Current geologic mapping\, geophysical data collection \, and geochemistry efforts in Missouri are aimed at identifying areas wi th potential for undiscovered critical mineral deposits and advance our u nderstanding of other economically valuable mineral resources.\n\n\nGillm an is a member and former president of the Association of American State Geologists and recently served as the Central States' Representative on t he National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program and the National Geologi cal and Geophysical Data Preservation Program. He serves on five state bo ards and commissions including\, the State Oil and Gas Council\, the Miss ouri Mining Commission\, the Missouri Board of Geologists Registration\, the Well Installation Board and the Industrial Minerals Advisory Council. In addition\, he represents Missouri's interests with the Interstate Oil and Gas Compact Commission\, the Central United States Earthquake Consor tium\, and the Plains Carbon Dioxide Reduction Partnership.\n\n\nNational ly\, he serves as chair of the finance committee of the Association of St ate Boards of Geology and is an active member of the American Institute o f Professional Geologists\, the Association of Environmental and Engineer ing Geologists\, and the National Groundwater Association. In 2018\, Gill man was elected as fellow of the Geological Society of America.
