hela Sverige LKAB is an international mining and minerals group that offers sustainable iron ore, minerals and special products. We are committed to developing carbon-free processes and products by 2045, leading the transformation of the iron and steel industry.
We are one of Sweden's oldest industrial companies and are wholly owned by the Swedish state. Since 1890 we have developed through unique innovations and technological solutions and are driven forward by more than 4,500 employees in 12 countries. In 2020, the LKAB group had sales of about SEK 34 billion.
Sustainability is the core of our business, and our ambition is to be one of the most innovative, resource-efficient and responsible mining companies in the sector. We manufacture and supply highly processed iron ore products to the global steel market.
About the position
LKAB is developing one of the major exploration campaigns in Europe to expand the life of their business beyond 2060. The focus is the continuation at depth of our current orebodies which means mining towards 2000m. The challenges associated with mining at greater depths require an extremely good knowledge and characterization of the rock mass prior to any mine design.
We are now looking for experienced geologists or rock mechanic engineers to accurately characterize our rock mass and continue to develop our geotechnical block model.
The main tasks comprise:
• Create a 3D geotechnical block model for both the orebody and side rock.
• Establish common criteria with the exploration, mine, and engineering departments on geotechnical issues.
• Supervision of core logging of geotechnical features, simultaneously with the ore resource geologists. Introducing data into Leapfrog and review of existing datasets.
• Ensure all tests are adequately done, standardized, and with QA/QC.
• Planning of dedicated geotechnical drilling programs.
• Liaise with mine geologists and structural geologists.
The position is within the Mining Technology Department and you will report directly to the section manger. You will be based in Kiruna. Travel between different mine sites will be part of the job.
Your qualifications
You must have a relevant education, several years of relevant experience in geotechnical mapping and core logging, 3D modelling expertise and knowledge of geotechnical rock mass classification systems.
You are encouraged to have a well-developed ability to cooperate, excellent communication skills, experience in leadership roles and adhere to LKAB's code of conduct. A systematic, structured, and self-motivated attitude is required for this role.
To express yourself well in written and spoken English and/or Swedish is essential.
Other information
Submit your application no later than December 31th 2021. Selection takes place continuously.
