Este curso es el segundo de una serie de tres cursos sobre planificación minera. Planificación minera 2: Operaciones le presenta los conceptos clave de planificación minera de secuencia y programación, así como la ley de corte. El proceso de planificación minera es complejo e integra varias ramas técnicas de la disciplina minera, incluidas la mecánica de rocas, la rotura de rocas, la ventilación y el diseño de minas. Si bien los planificadores de minas deben esforzarse por diseñar e implementar planes que sean seguros, ambientalmente sostenibles y socialmente aceptables, el factor primordial en el éxito de una operación minera y lo que en última instancia determina si continuará a través de los estudios de factibilidad y la construcción y el desarrollo es el nivel de rentabilidad. El impulso para explotar un recurso mineral de manera que agregue tanto valor como sea posible al negocio minero requiere una actualización continua del plan de la mina y la rápida implementación de cualquier oportunidad de agregar valor a medida que surja. Alcance Este curso se centra en los conceptos principales asociados con la investigación del impacto financiero de una serie de palancas clave en el valor de un plan de mina. Este curso no investiga los conceptos técnicos básicos requeridos en la minería. Se supone que se han establecido todos los parámetros técnicos y que son factibles. Por lo tanto, el enfoque se centra en establecer la optimización financiera mediante la planificación y la generación del mejor plan minero. Este curso tampoco enseña el uso de software de planificación y diseño de minas que, en algunos casos, puede incorporar los conceptos analizados en el mismo.

Planificación minera 1: Estrategia le presenta los conceptos clave de la planificación minera. El proceso de planificación minera es complejo e integra varias ramas técnicas de la disciplina minera, incluidas la mecánica de rocas, la rotura de rocas, la ventilación y el diseño de minas. Si bien los planificadores de minas deben esforzarse por diseñar e implementar planes que sean seguros, ambientalmente sostenibles y socialmente aceptables, el factor primordial en el éxito de una operación minera y lo que en última instancia determina si se llevará a cabo a través de estudios de factibilidad y luego se llevará a cabo la construcción y el desarrollo es el nivel de rentabilidad. El impulso para explotar un recurso mineral de manera que agregue tanto valor como sea posible al negocio minero requiere una actualización continua del plan de la mina y la rápida implementación de cualquier oportunidad de agregar valor a medida que surja. Se supone que los participantes del curso tienen un buen conocimiento de los términos y descripciones de la minería, han estado expuestos a métodos de minería de superficie y subterránea, están familiarizados con el desarrollo, las operaciones y la producción mineras y están interesados ​​en aprender a planificar una mina con el propósito de maximizar el valor. También se espera que los participantes del curso tengan conocimientos básicos de mecánica de rocas, rotura de rocas, ventilación, equipos mineros típicos y otros fundamentos técnicos que forman la plataforma y las limitaciones para generar planes mineros.

This is an excerpt of the full course and is intended to give learners a free trial of the content.  For access to the full course, enroll in What is Mining: An Introduction to the Mining Value Chain . In this introductory course, students explore the full breadth and depth of the mining sector. An array of succinct overviews, video clips, and infographics guide students through a typical mining value chain (exploration, mining, processing, transport, closure, and post-closure). Topics such as artisanal and small-scale mining, project financing, and an overview of a variety of commodities are included. Key trends within mining are also explored including insight into new and developing technologies, and true sustainability within mining. Students will leave this course with a solid grasp of mining terminology, processes, and business practices that will help them work in or with professionals in the mining industry. About the Audience This course provides a robust foundation to the key components of the mining industry and introduces the learner to the mining value chain, industry specific terminology and key concepts. This course is for anyone who is interested in the mining sector and would like a broad overview of the mining value chain without the technical details. Examples of those who may be interested include: geologists, chemists, engineers, government officials, regulators, data scientists, policy setters, non-governmental organizations, procurement specialists, academics, finance professionals, sustainability experts, lawyers, and administrative staff. Recommended Background This is an introductory level course. No specific pre-requisites are recommended. Read more

This is an excerpt of the full course and is intended to give learners a free trial of the content.  The full course is available for purchase on the Edumine Store. About the Course The shift to fully electric vehicles using lithium-ion battery technology is well underway and the rate of production of electric vehicles is set to accelerate. Government incentives and policy mandates will boost sales of passenger plug-in electric vehicles by a 28.1% CAGR (compound annual growth rate) from 2021 through 2026. New lithium-ion battery factories are being built and more planned to meet this demand.  To produce these batteries you need raw materials, particularly the battery metals including lithium, cobalt and nickel. Battery component supply pipelines will struggle to keep up with such a sharp rise in demand. This introductory course provides the learner an overview of the Battery Metals industry. The content includes a brief history of battery technology, the factors that are driving and influencing the market, the supply chain and future predictions. Learners explore battery metals with a holistic approach to gain insight into the complex relationships that develop between the influencing factors that lead to criticality. Discover these considerations through an ethical standpoint as well as a business and financial perspective. About the Audience This course explores concepts that will be useful for those seeking a well rounded understanding of battery metals and is suitable for beginner to intermediate levels.   Examples of those who may be interested include: investors, geologists, chemists, engineers, government officials, regulators, data scientists, policy setters, non-governmental organizations, procurement specialists, academics, finance professionals, sustainability experts, lawyers, and administrative staff. Recommended Background This is an introductory level course. While not required, we recommend the course What is Mining for an overview of the Mining Value Chain and key terminology. Read more
