ENER14002 - Resource Systems Feasibility Project

General Information

Unit Synopsis

This capstone unit will allow you to apply knowledge of data sets, data analysis, environmental constraints and mine design to a feasibility study for a proposed mining operation. You will enhance your understanding of drilling and blasting operations and data analysis to optimise the safety and productivity of a proposed mining project. You will develop a stakeholder management plan that enhances the operation's social licence to operate. You will apply schedules to the project to optimise the rate of return on the project balancing capital expenditure against forecast revenues.

This is a graded unit: your overall grade will be calculated from the marks or grades for each assessment task, based on the relative weightings shown in the table above. You must obtain an overall mark for the unit of at least 50%, or an overall grade of ‘pass’ in order to pass the unit. If any ‘pass/fail’ tasks are shown in the table above they must also be completed successfully (‘pass’ grade).
