Experience
Ezilma has more than 18 years of experience in the mining industry, predominantly in geotechnical engineering. She has proven experience in open-pit (large and mid-size soft-rock and hard-rock) and underground mining (sub-level open stoping and narrow vein methods). This experience has been gained across many commodities including iron ore, copper, nickel, and gold. Following 15 years of practical experience across several operations in Brazil and Australia, as a consultant she has provided technical and operational geotechnical support to projects and operations globally. She has a strong focus on geotechnical risk from an operational perspective. With almost four years of experience conducting underground and open pit geotechnical studies, she has a deep attention on the potential impacts of geotechnical risk to a project. Ezilma has worked at all stages of mine design from greenfields to active operations.
