Metallurgist

Plant metallurgists work recovery, throughput and reagent cost across comminution, flotation, leach and refinery circuits. Process route matters more than commodity on a CV: a CIL gold plant and a copper concentrator hire from different pools.

Copper

Copper covers large open pit porphyry mines, block cave underground operations and concentrator or SXEW processing. Demand is structural rather than seasonal, and the biggest hiring centres are Chile, Peru, Zambia and the DRC.
