Over 20 years of experience in minerals processing, acquired through a combination of engineering, site operational & technical support, collaborative research and development and technical product support/reagent sales. Specific areas of interest include operational review and improvements, process development, circuit design and optimisation, trade-off studies and feasibility studies. A benefit from having worked in operations, engineering, research & development and technical product support/reagent sales is the accumulated knowledge and understanding of the synergies, as well as a wide industry network which enables connection and delivering value to the many aspects of mineral processing projects.Areas of expertise:- Leadership & strategydemonstrated ability to step up at an operational level & provide operating strategies and engineering options- Analysis & performance monitoringbenchmarking & identification of optimisation opportunities- Metallurgical testwork proficient in design, analysis and interpretation- Technical support & technology transferproven track record in providing technical support & knowledge transfer to operations/Clients- Engineering design & feasibility studiestailored solutions from scoping studies to DFS, through to detailed engineering phases- High quality engineering deliverablesprocess design criteria (PDC), process mass balance, process flow diagrams, piping and instrumentation diagrams, process control philosophy & input into process functional specification- Process Opex & Project Opex estimatesdeveloped in conjunction with Client inputs, PDC, metallurgical testwork, process labour costs, mechanical equipment list, electrical load list, reagent & consumable costs, mining, tailings, engineering benchmarks and equipment vendors- Collaborative team workacross multi-discipline engineering teams, Client teams, R&D teams and equipment vendor teams
