CAD geological modelling, mine design and production planning are the backbone of modern mining operations, supporting new project development, economic evaluation of mining projects and optimising daily operations. Understanding how this technology works is a basic requirement for mining peofessionals.

Social license to operate is a high-ranking priority for mining operators. To reduce project delay or disapproval risks, a collaborative planning framework is proposed to increase visibility of social and environmental challenges, to improve communications, and to facilitate collaboration between multi-discipline stakeholders.

This course will give you tools to improve your operational cash flow models and budgeting tools. The effects of market and project uncertainties are discussed and methods to include their effects into feasibility analysis / budgeting are provided. Also methods to deal with uncertainty realizations are discussed and modeled.

This course will discuss creation of exploration start up 'Inkubator' companies with a hands on approach of creating a group start up company and funding it with aspects including legal, technical and corporate. It will involve operations, including ongoing funding mechanisms, shareholder communication and endgame scenarios.

The discovery of the African diamond fields (South Africa, Namibia, Congo and Angola), in conjunction with the rise of the United States into the world economic leadership fueled the rapid development of the diamond industry. New deposits were found in Australia and Canada in the last quarter of the XX century (after the communist USSR – now Russia – also became a major diamond source in the second half of the XX century).

This course will provide you with the knowledge about the current electrochemical treatment of industrial waters as well as give the tools to improve and assess water treatment on sites. The effect of electrochemical treatment on the removal of contaminants, possible application and feasibility studies are discussed during the course. You leave the course with the ready and assessed solution to treat your water streams.

This course discusses the exploration, evaluation, valuation and reporting of mineral deposits process as shaped by local and global economic, social and political variables, forces and actors rather than only by technology and the geology, metallogeny, physical and chemical properties of ores and mineral deposits.

Der Freiberger Kalibreurstag wurde vom Internationalen Kalibrierzentrum des Instituts für Metallformung als jährliche Weiterbildungsveranstaltung rund um das Thema der Herstellung von Langprodukten ins Leben gerufen. Hier wird jeweils zu einem ausgewählten Schwerpunktthema ein Mix aus Grundlagenwissen, praktischem Können und einem Überblicksvortrag zum gegebenen Thema angeboten. In diesem Jahr beschäftigt sich der Workshop mit der praktischen Auslegung von Streckkaliberreihen.

Geochemical exploration has evolved over the past 30 years from traditionally focused (mineral) resource identification to a multi-element, multi-media toolbox.

Grundlagenwissen und praktische Anwendung der wesentlichen Weiterverarbeitungstechniken von Flachglas

Angesichts des Fachkräftemangels stellt sich zunehmend die Frage, wie neue Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeiter gewonnen und im Unternehmen gehalten werden können. Dabei gewinnt die Qualifikation und Weiterbildung von QuereinsteigerInnen für viele Unternehmen der Branche an Relevanz.

Erneuerung von Grundlagenwissen und Vertiefung von Fachwissen über die Bereiche der Werk- und Rohstoffkunde und über die technologischen Abläufe in der Glas-industrie sowie Vernetzung und Erfahrungsaustausch

The European Union (EU) is one of the major trading partners of Nigeria. Solid minerals raw materials are critical to the EU industrial sector and economy. However, some factors, which include increased demand by emerging economies, shift in trade policies, inadequate supply and increasing demand by the producing countries amongst others, are limiting accessibility to these raw materials. Consequently, the EU industries need to explore new sources of mineral raw materials to mitigate the risk of non-availability and ensure sustainable operations. The data on Nigeria’s solid mineral raw materials sector will assist raw materials supply chain managers, prospective investors and researchers with information on availability, quantity, quality, sustainable supply and government policies in the mineral raw materials sector to plan their operations and make sound business decisions.

INNOMAT: the course to make your business more resilient to risks in materials supply

This is an introductory course on the international policies, reporting frameworks, standards, good practices and guidelines for mineral projects and assets.

Metals recovery through pyro- and/or hydrometallurgical route is a complex and multidimensional process where multiple unit operations are used. Metallurgical unit operations are most often multiphase systems, and research and development faces many of the challenges typically found with such systems. In view of the complexity of the task, the use of sophisticated modeling and simulation tools is a valid approach for analysis of the important phenomena behind the operations, their interactions and relative importance.

Over the last 30 years, portable X-ray fluorescence (pXRF) has become a key technique for field geochemical analyses, for both mining and environmental applications. pXRF provides real-time decision support for operational field decisions in the areas of exploration, mining, site remediation or waste management.

Many proponents in the extractive sector are experiencing extended permitting delays or denials due to opposing stakeholders. To reduce risks causing such external concerns and delays, a front-end planning & mapping framework is proposed to increase visibility and understanding of complex systems, improve communications, and facilitate collaboration between multi-discipline stakeholders.

This course presents and discusses the international policies, reporting frameworks, standards, good practices and guidelines for mineral projects and assets.

Time management is the key to keep a healthy work life balance and sustain your professional capabiity especially when working in high-stress and hectic enviroments like international projects in the raw materials sector. This seminar will help you organize yourself and increase your effectiveness.
