The book has been written to help miners succeed in the exceedingly challenging world of project management. Mining projects are complex. The path to successful project completion is imbedded with situational uncertainties and strewn with obstacles. These pages offer practical solutions to remove the obstacles and provide sound insight to cope with the uncertainties. The goal is to bring the project management world into better focus, to place project managers in positions where they can anticipate rather than respond, and to lay out the project execution path in straightforward patterns with understandable success strategies that will achieve the desired outcome.
More specifically, Project Management for Miningprovides the originator of a mining idea or mineral opportunity with the necessary guidance to develop that idea or opportunity into a well-defined project that will successfully meet the corporation’s business objectives. This book.
presents a best practice process for steering development of the project through senior management approval and on-site execution.
The intent is for this book to serve as a handy reference of proven techniques and winning approaches for effective project management within the mining industry, and to impart knowledge to all those who seek to manage mining project work, not just the project manager. The reason this book is titled Project Management for Miningrather than something like A Project Manager’s Manualis because it is a manifestation of the authors’ goal to create a go-to handbook that will be drawn from on a regular basis, rather than a little-used textbook lying on a dusty library shelf.
The book identifies the roles, responsibilities, and accountabilities of the individuals involved in the development and execution of the project. It provides a skeleton for, and reference to, the various documents that compose the mining industry’s soundest practices, and.
it identifies the interrelationships between the parties and disciplines in a typical project. By following the procedures contained within this book, a mining organization can be assured that the project is properly characterized, project viability has been adequately challenged, the.
correct questions are being answered, and the appropriate process is being implemented.
