– Mine Planning Workshop – Summer 2022
We are happy to announce our first Mine Planning Workshop (MPW2022) that will be held in July. The Workshop is organised by our Laboratory of Mining Informatics and Machine Learning Applications in partnership with Maptek. Undergraduate and graduate Mining and Mineral Resources Engineers and Geologists will have the opportunity to gain a 7-day hands-on experience on mine planning using data from real deposits. The workshop will take place online and in Greek.
– Webinar: Strategic minerals and metals from the Mineral Resources Engineer’s perspective
After a long break due to Easter, our webinars return on Saturday 7 May, 11:00 am with our next speaker, Dr. Georgios Barakos of the Curtin University of Australia. The subject of his presentation is “Strategic minerals and metals from the Mineral Resources Engineer perspective”.
Dr. Barakos is a lecturer at the Western Australia School of Mines of Curtin University in Australia. He has worked as research associate for the Technical University Bergakademie Freiberg, Germany between 2017 and 2022.
He received his diploma from the School of Mineral Resources Engineering of the Polytechnic of Crete in 2005, as well as his postgraduate degree in Geotechnology and Environment. In 2017 he became a PhD in Mining from the Technical University Bergakademie Freiberg, in Germany.
He has worked bothe in academia and the industry as a supervising engineer for aggregates quarries. His research interests are focused on evaluating the feasibility of surface and underground mining operations, mine method selection, 3D production planning and optimisation, cost estimation, economic and technical analysis of existing and new mining projects, and market analysis for strategic and critical metals mostly related to the energy transition.
Dr. Barakos collaborate with the European Community as external associate, specialising in the evaluation of mineral raw materials for Europe. He has published a significant number of scientific papers and is a reviewer for many international scientific journals.
