- This delegate is presenting an abstract at this event.

She is a principal mineralogist from AXT PTY LTD, Perth, and her current role involves training, development and optimisation of the TIMA automated mineralogy technique while liaising with the mining industry customers and research organisations. In 2006 she obtained her MSc degree in mineralogy and geochemistry from the AGH University of Science and Technology, Poland. Within the last 13 years, she has been actively and successfully collaborating with the academic researchers and mineral industry customers from Australia and overseas offering the mineral characterisation expertise. She co-authored several conference and journal papers while working at the University of South Australia (2009-2015). She possesses in depth knowledge of many analytical tools including the SEM-based automated mineralogy systems, optical light microscopy, X-ray diffraction and the LIBS technique. She is a passionate geoscientist and has a great understanding of many different mineral systems including SEDEX Pb-Zn and porphyry Cu-Au deposits, Ni laterites and Ni sulphides, heavy mineral sands, iron ore and the LCT pegmatites, among others. She collaborates with the mineral processing departments by evaluating the mineralogical data to optimise the flowsheet deign and define further opportunities for the extraction of the valuable minerals.
