Ha no, this is something you gotta make in Pathfinder
Oh hell yeah. PF all the way for this sort of shenanigans.
I'd think it kind of depends, land druid is probably the closest flavor wise (but you might need to tweak the spell list/ wild shape to focus more on geology), but I could also see something like a warlock working if the stones are a source of arcane power.
some kind of dwarven warlock or druid/cleric seems like a fit... surprised this isn't already a thing tbh
Actually, yeah! The High Geologist would probably make for a way better warlock patron NPC. Since patrons don't necessarily have to be divine cosmic entities HG could totally be a crazy strong wizard/ druid. Bonus points for stupid easy plot hooks (go fetch me the heart of a mountain, dragonfire obsidian, etc) quest rewards (just imbue high level spells into rocks/ crystals (ie fireball in a fire quartz, stinking cloud in sulphur, etc.) as a surprise tool to help us later for the party), and conflicts (how do other wizardly geologist feel about warlocks?).
A warlock dwarf trying to channel the arcane power of the earth sounds like a super compelling springboard for a character.
yeah this should be a class of it's own, geomancer or something
I would argue some wizard variant. A wizard is someone who studies magic knowledge. A student is a person who studies regular human knowledge. A geologist is a particular kind of student who studies rocks, so as a class I'd say it's a wizard who focused his magical studies on earth manipulating magic.
