MINING 4107 - Surface Mining Systems

North Terrace Campus - Semester 2 - 2014

This is an advanced course building on the learning acquired in the Mining Systems course. Students will have the opportunity to further develop their knowledge and skills in the selection and evaluation of surface coal and metaliferous mining systems using a project-based learning approach. This course assumes that students have a good understanding of mining terms and descriptions, have been exposed to surface mining methods and are familiar with mining development, operations and production. Each project is undertaken by a group of 3-5 students.
