My name is Annelizle Botha, and I am interested in the Senior Lecturer in Sustainable Mining (P003808) position at NWU.
I don’t have a PhD, but I would love to do my PhD in the near future and I have extensive experience in the mining industry especially gold, cement and aggregates as well as GIS.
I have completed my BSc Earth Science degree (Majors: Geology, Geography and Environmental Management) and BSc Geology Honours degree at RAU (now UJ) and my MSc Mineral Resource Management degree at UFS.
During my MSc MRM I did courses like: Overview of business processes (geology), Mineral Resources Management 1 Methodology, Applied Geology, Applied Metallurgy, Applied Mining, MRM Implementation Practices (Project Management), MRM Organisational Change Practices, Virtual Mining Simulation and Optimisation, Mineral Resource Management 2 Advanced, Geological Modelling and Applied Geo-Statistics, Mining Throughput Accounting and Modelling, Mineral Resource Management Risk Practices as well as a Research Dissertation.
I have worked in the mining industry for 20 years from deep to ultra deep level mining as well as open cast mining (cement and aggregates) as well as GIS. At AfriSam the geology department assisted in the Mine Rehabilitation planning as well as environmental management issues. I have also assisted CADDIS with training at the mines.
I have extensive experience in the mining industry and sustainable mining practices. My knowledge of South African geology is good as well as the South African Mining Industry.
I am registered with SACNASP (400170/08) as a Professional Natural Scientist Geological Science.
I thrive under pressure, I am a good team player, communicate well, good writing skills as well as problem solving and good project management capabilities.
I could no longer pursue my work as a geologist on the mines due to a car accident where my vestibular system was injured and I was declared medically incapacitated. I currently work in real estates as a Principle Real Estate Agent.
It would be an exciting opportunity to grow within a respected institution like NWU and I do believe that with all the mining knowledge and experience I also would make a difference in the department. Geology have always been my passion and I would really like a new challenge. I look further to discussing my career and qualifications further.
Experienced Sectional Geologist with over 15 years’ experience in the gold mining industry. Proven work experience in gold mines (intermediate to ultra-deep level mining), stoping, development sections and shaft pillar and 3/1/2 years cement and aggregates experience as well as GIS experience. An inspiring leader with the ability to think laterally, provide solutions and exercise independent judgment in the resolution of problems.
Successful track record in making significant contributions to business growth.
Gold mine I did a project and extended the LOM with another 13 years. Completed my MSc MRM at UFS as well as my LDP through UP.
BSc Earth Science, BSc Geology Honours, MSc MRM
