I have more than 10 years of practical experience in planning and scheduling large open pit mines. I was responsible for site investigation, analysis, and design of several large open pit mines, such as MehdiAbad lead and zinc mine, Songun copper mine, Meyduk copper mine, and Chahfiroozeh copper mine. I applied various design techniques and simulation equipment. During my time at Mobin, I prepared several proposal documents and specifications for clients, guided the design procedure, and oversaw design reports for projects. I have extensive practical experience in using commercial planning and design software packages, including VULCAN, SURPAC, MINESCHED, and WHITTLE. I trained engineers in the use of some of these software and also improved their usage. I am well-experienced in selecting equipment systems for open pit mines. I have extensive experience in:Open pit optimization: resource and reserve estimation, ultimate pit limit design, production scheduling, and cut-off grade optimization.Mining operation optimization: equipment selection, fleet monitoring, and dispatching systems.Advanced user of mine design and planning software.Open pit short-term design and scheduled production planning.
