Learn mine planning, open pit and underground mining, and mine safety step by step through a realistic copper-gold mine

What you'll learn
Plan a realistic copper-gold mine from the first drill hole to first concentrate, building 14 portfolio pieces you can show employers
Calculate cut-off grade and stripping ratio to decide with confidence which rock is ore and which is waste
Read a block model and explain mineral resources versus ore reserves under JORC and NI 43-101 like an industry professional
Choose the most valuable pit shell, design ramps and pushbacks, and build a life-of-mine schedule that keeps the plant full
Design a production blast, calculate powder factor, and control misfires, flyrock and vibration
Size a haul truck fleet from cycle time and productivity, and see why a single minute can be worth most of a truck
Investigate a production shortfall with mining KPIs and pinpoint exactly where the lost tonnes went
Cut dilution and ore loss with grade control practices that protect millions of dollars at the digging face
Compare underground mining methods and estimate ventilation airflow and ground support for an underground expansion decision
Follow ore through crushing, grinding and flotation, and use mine-to-mill thinking to boost plant performance
Reconcile model, mine and mill to catch costly problems early, before they hit production
Manage fatal risks with ISO 45001, critical controls and bowtie analysis, the way leading mining companies do
Understand tailings dam safety and the GISTM standard through the hard lessons of Mount Polley and Brumadinho
Manage water, acid mine drainage, community relations and mine closure to protect the mine's social license to operate
Turn around a mine that's behind plan using a full two-year case study and a recovery plan you write yourself
Map your mining career path, from professional registration to Competent Person status, with clear next steps

Professional Diploma in Mining Engineering and Operations: Mine Planning, Open Pit and Underground Mining, Safety and Mineral Processing
Almost everything around you started as rock in the ground. The copper in your phone, the steel in your building and the gold in a central bank vault all exist because someone decided a piece of rock was worth mining, and then worked out how to mine it safely, profitably and responsibly. This course teaches you how that decision is made, and how a mine turns it into reality, shift after shift and year after year.

This Professional Diploma in Mining Engineering and Operations is a practical, beginner-friendly program covering the full life of a mine. You'll start with geology and mineral resources, then move through mine planning and design, drilling and blasting, load and haul, underground mining, mineral processing, safety, environment, tailings, closure and your mining career. You won't need an engineering degree to start. If you're comfortable with everyday arithmetic and curious about how big things get built, you're ready.

Learn by doing: the Kestrel Hill mine project
Most mining courses explain topics one at a time. This one puts you inside a working project. From the first lecture, you join the team at Kestrel Hill, a realistic fictional open-pit copper-gold mine, as a new graduate mining engineer, twelve months before first production.

You'll help build the mine plan, design the first ore blast, size the haul truck fleet and investigate a production shortfall. You'll also evaluate an underground extension, reconcile the first month of production, analyze a near-miss and attend a tense community meeting. Then you'll see what happens when the plan meets reality, through a detailed two-year case study, and write the recovery plan yourself.

Along the way, you'll build 14 practical pieces of work that come together into a professional mining portfolio you can use in job applications and interviews.

What you will learn
- How ore differs from waste, and how grade, tonnage, density and contained metal drive every mining decision

- How drill holes become a block model, and how to read one like a mining engineer

- The difference between mineral resources and ore reserves, explained through the JORC Code, NI 43-101 and the Competent Person and Qualified Person system

- Mining economics: capex, opex, sustaining capital and cost per tonne

- How to calculate cut-off grade, including break-even and marginal cut-offs

- How to calculate overall, instantaneous and break-even stripping ratios

- Open pit mine planning: pit optimization, pit shells, revenue factors and NPV-based shell selection

- Pit slope stability, bench design, berms, inter-ramp angles and slope monitoring

- How to design ramps and haul roads and plan pushback phases

- How to build a life-of-mine schedule that keeps the processing plant full

- Drill and blast design, including powder factor calculation, blast patterns, timing, misfires, flyrock and vibration control

- Load and haul fleet matching, truck cycle time, fleet productivity and haulage cost

- Grade control, dilution and ore loss at the digging face

- Production KPIs, equipment availability, utilization and fleet management systems

- Underground mining methods, including open stoping, cut-and-fill, sublevel caving and block caving

- Mine ventilation basics and underground ground control with rock bolts, mesh and shotcrete

- Mineral processing from crushing and grinding to flotation and gold recovery, and how mine-to-mill optimization improves plant performance

- Mine reconciliation: comparing model, mine and mill

- Mine safety management with ISO 45001, the hierarchy of controls, critical control management and bowtie risk analysis

- Water management, waste rock and acid mine drainage

- Tailings dam safety, lessons from Mount Polley and Brumadinho, and the Global Industry Standard on Tailings Management (GISTM)

- Social license to operate, community engagement and the ICMM Mining Principles

- Mine closure planning and progressive rehabilitation

- How to recover a mine that is behind plan, handle resistance and build a strong safety culture

How the course is built
The course follows the life of a real mine in seven stages

- Understand the deposit

- Value the rock

- Design the mine

- Run the operation

- Protect people and the environment

- Prove the plan against reality

- Grow your career

Every concept is taught before it's used, and every calculation is worked through slowly, one step at a time. Real-world case studies from Bingham Canyon, Pike River, Mount Polley and Brumadinho show what's at stake, and why safety and responsibility have to be engineered in from day one.

Why this course is different
This course is taught with the depth of an experienced practitioner and the clarity of a teacher who wants you to understand. You'll get the rules of thumb engineers actually use, honest discussion of trade-offs, and a constant focus on the question that separates good mining professionals from average ones: what is the assumption behind that number?

You'll finish with a solid, connected understanding of mining engineering and operations, a portfolio of practical work, and a clear picture of the career paths, qualifications and next steps open to you. You'll also receive a certificate of completion to add to your CV and LinkedIn profile. It's a course certificate, not an accredited professional qualification, and the course explains the formal routes to professional registration.

Enroll today, join the team at Kestrel Hill, and start learning how a mine really works, from the first drill hole to the final wrap-up.
