Philip Earl (Phil) is a chartered professional mining engineer with 25 years of international experience in operational and consulting roles. He specialises in mining rock mechanics and is best known for providing practical, operational-based expertise to achieve safe and economic production in challenging geotechnical environments. His core interests centre on the integration of geotechnical data into strategic and long-term mining plans in order to safely optimise extraction plans.Phil established Global Mine Design in 2013. GMD focuses on understanding the mechanisms that drive orebody behaviours during extraction at operational mine sites, which is essential to safe, efficient mine production, and a fundamental component of providing a Positive Net Impact to all communities and stakeholders. Over the past 10 years, GMD has grown into a team of mining engineers, geotechnical engineers, and geoscientists who together offer expertise in mining geomechanics, seismicity, mine planning and design, and ventilation.
Listed skills include Rock Mechanics, Geotechnical Engineering, Mining, Minerals, and 13 others.
