Summary of Experience

I have over 17 years design and operations experience in the mining industry, having worked on a variety of projects both in Australia and overseas. My primary experience includes Nickel, Gold, Copper, Lead and Tantalum. I am also very experienced in Metsim modeling.
My operations experience was gained in South Africa where I worked for Gencor on various gold plant operations including BIOX, CIP, CIL and Merrill Crowe for 5 years. I was Production Superintendent at Gencor's Winkelhaak Gold Mine in South Africa prior to moving into engineering.
My design experience commenced in 1996 when I joined Fluor South Africa. I moved with Fluor to Australia in the middle of 1997. I have been involved as lead process engineer on numerous studies and projects in South Africa, Zimbabwe, Guatemala, Zambia, the DRC and Australia. I have also been involved in the commissioning and commissioning management of various plants in South Africa, Zimbabwe, Guatemala, Bolivia and Australia.
I have held a number of technical management positions.
