The Mining Engineer Competency Demonstration Report Sample contains all of the necessary documentation, including Three Career Episodes, Continuing Professional Development, and a Summary Statement. The following is the content of the Mining Engineer CDR Report Sample:

1st Episode Report on a Mining Engineer’s Career

Project Name: “The Eliza Hill-Will project will be the subject of a feasibility report.”

The author outlines a project he worked on while earning his bachelor’s degree in mining engineering in the first career episode. This episode of his career is focused on his project, “formulation of a feasibility report for the Eliza Hill-Will project.” The author’s duties at the time were as follows:

• Geological modelling of components was studied, and geological models of the waste dump and stockpiles were created for mine stability research.
• More research was done on the final strip end wall, which was designed to approximate the longevity of the underground main entry routes.
• Investigations were carried out with the aim of providing a detailed representation of production costs versus yielding costs while milling rates were decreased.
• The mine’s hydrological, hydrogeological, and meteorological features, as well as cultural and environmental restrictions, were studied.
• Developed strategic plans for stockpiling mined coal, separating high-quality coal from low-quality coal.

2nd Episode Report on a Mining Engineer’s Career

Project Name: “Determining Mine Rock Strata Properties”

The author describes the engineering skills he used when earning his bachelor’s degree in mining engineering in the second career episode. His roles and tasks in the project “Determining The Properties Of Mine Rock Strata” during this period were as follows:

• With the help of geologists, material scientists, and mining engineers, conducted a preliminary survey on the rock domain properties to determine the elements present.
• Determined and picked the most appropriate explosion technique, taking into account considerations such as rock density and underlying strata’s physical characteristics.
• Risks and hazards associated with project phases such as project creation, experimental set-up, and execution were assessed on an environmental, technological, financial, and safety basis.
• Determined and assessed the safety of procedures, an execution order, and the safety of the explosion environment, as well as the risks of slippage and rock falls.
• Planned and organised the efficient use of manpower and equipment in order to meet predetermined productivity goals, set safety requirements, and follow environmental regulations.

3rd Episode Report on a Mining Engineer’s Career

Project Name: “Development and Feasibility of Hard Rock Mines”

The author describes the engineering skills he used when earning his bachelor’s degree in mining engineering in the third career episode. His roles and tasks in the project “Hard Rock Mine Design and Feasibility” during this period were as follows:

• Geological, geotechnical, and topographic assessment of mine area based on data from nearby mines and journals, as well as test results sent to company laboratories
• Mine open pit and underground mine designs were optimised, as well as other criteria such as the ventilation system.
• For mine operations, I conducted a geographical reserve estimate and established a mine strategy. Timetable for mining
• In terms of manpower, facilities, and other services, I assessed the resources necessary to complete the project’s goals phases.
• The amount of copper and gold produced from the ore is used to estimate the cost of implementing mineral mining methodology, infrastructure developments, and installations.

Statement of the Mining Engineer

The author presents all of the competency elements needed for a Professional Mining Engineer in his overview statement. As discussed in the Engineers Australia migration skills appraisal booklet, the overview statement contains cross references to the related paragraphs of the episodes. His Summary Statement complies fully with Engineers Australia’s current specifications.

Continuing Professional Development for Mining Engineers

Professional classes, non-professional courses, and private research are all part of the CPD. The author’s Mining Engineering knowledge is explicitly explained in the CPD Sample.
