1. Process Optimization: Responsible for optimizing the plant's metallurgical processes to maximize recovery and minimize losses. This involves analyzing process data, identifying bottlenecks, and implementing improvements to enhance overall efficiency. 2. Quality Control: Ensures that the final product meets the required quality specifications and standards. They monitor and analyze the composition and properties of the processed ore and take corrective actions if deviations occur. 3. Troubleshooting: In case of any operational issues or process deviations, identifying the root cause and implementing corrective measures to restore normal operations. This involves conducting investigations, analyzing data, and collaborating with other stakeholders to resolve the problems. 4. Research and Development: Involved in research and development activities to explore new technologies, processes, and equipment that can improve efficiency, reduce costs, and enhance metal recovery. 5. Safety and Environmental Compliance: Ensure that all metallurgical processes meet safety and environmental regulations. Participate in designing and implementing safety protocols, waste management strategies, and environmental monitoring programs to minimize the plant's impact on the environment. 6. Collaboration and Communication: Work closely with various departments, such as geology, engineering, and maintenance, to ensure smooth coordination and integration of different processes. Communicate with management, stakeholders, and external parties to provide updates, reports, and recommendations related to metallurgical operations.7. Laboratory Operations: Responsible of the overall functioning of the metallurgical laboratory. Managing staff, equipment and resources to ensure efficient and timely analysis of samples.8. Sample Analysis: Oversees the analysis of various samples, including ore, concentrates, tailings and process streams9. Equipment Management & Data analysis and reporting.
