Graduated in Mining Engineering from the University of British Columbia. Studies focused on rock mechanics, precious metal processing, and block cave mining. Pursuing a career path in mine planning, corporate social responsibility, and one day, management. Skills SummaryMine Planning
Assessed the economic feasibility of mining projects in Canada and Mexico. Determined appropriate and cost-effective means of mining and milling these mineral deposits. In both cases, developed a mill process and sized the mill equipment; in the Mexican project, completed an entire feasibility study. In a separate project, modelled an orebody in Maptek Vulcan, computing the total expected amount of copper in the orebody. After completing pit optimization, designed an open pit and dump for said orebody.
Geotechnical AnalysisGathered geotechnical information to make recommendations for a planned road cut through rocky outcrop. Determined mean discontinuity spacing and the peak friction angle, then performed a kinematic analysis in RocScience DIPS to determine failure mechanisms. Calculated the RMR and Q’ for the entire rock mass utilizing the Palmstrom method. In a separate but similar project, determined likely failure mechanisms and identified which parameters had the greatest effect on rock slope analysis via sensitivity analysis.
Data Compilation, Processing and PresentationDeveloped technical reports in a variety of engineering-related courses. Work included analyzing data and writing reports for metallurgical, mineral processing, and other mining and materials-related labs, presenting powerpoints on these subjects, and completing feasibility studies for various mine projects.
Teamwork and Skill Acquisition“Stewart immediately showed that he had a strong work ethic and a willingness to learn, and has a natural ability for being able to pick up on operating circuits within a short time frame. Stewart works well within a team environment and worked well with sharing the work load that each circuit required.” … “I personally would rehire him again if I found myself in the capacity to do so.” Scott Walker, General Foreman of Maintenance and Operations, Yukon [email protected]
Work ExperienceMill Operator – Yukon Zinc Corp, Yukon October 16th 2014- January 22nd 2015
Worked multiple positions as a Mill Operator with Yukon Zinc Corp. Operated the crusher building. Ran the crusher control room and identified equipment for mine
maintenance. Labour included air-lancing, using a sledgehammer, and shovelling. Operated the Concentrate Loading Operations (CLO). I bagged copper and lead concentrates, then
drove it by forklift to our stockpiles. Loaded super-Bs with con when it was time to ship out material.
