PSOC 3117
Mining And Metallurgical Technicians
Mining and metallurgical technicians perform technical tasks to assist in research and experiments related to metallurgy, in improving methods of extracting solid minerals, oil and gas, and in the design, construction, operation, maintenance and repair of mines and mine installations, of systems for transporting and storing oil and natural gas, and for extraction of metals from ores.
Landas can show the official occupation information, but it does not have enough checked pathway evidence for a personal route.

What supports this guide
Task evidence describes observed AI use and checked crosswalks. It does not predict that a whole occupation will disappear. Global AI-use data may not match Philippine workplaces.
