Rozanne Rangolie (Cand.Sci.Nat.)

Geology Honours graduate with experience in lithium-ion battery materials research and geotechnical monitoring. Seeking to apply analytical, research, and geotechnical skills within the mining, geology, or critical minerals industry.

Lithium-Ion Battery Critical Materials Researcher at Project Blue (2024-03 – 2025-09)

• Conducted in-depth research on the global lithium-ion battery supply chain across North America, Europe, and other key regions.
• Collected, analysed, and maintained large datasets related to lithium-ion battery critical materials and market developments.
• Managed and updated research databases to ensure accurate tracking of supply chain and industry information.
• Contributed to the development and launch of three research products focused on lithium-ion battery cells, battery components and battery recycling.
• Collaborated within a research team to compile, verify, and finalise industry research products and reports.

Mining intern: Geotechnical Engineer at Reutech Radar Systems (2025-10 – Present)

• Assisted geotechnical engineers in monitoring mining sites using slope stability radar systems within a Geotechnical Monitoring Centre.
• Monitored slope displacement and ground movement data to support mine safety and geotechnical risk management.
• Developed an improved understanding of geotechnical monitoring systems and radar-based slope stability technology.
• Gained practical exposure to geotechnical engineering practices related to mine slope stability and risk assessment.
• Worked collaboratively with geotechnical teams to support real-time monitoring and reporting activities for mining sites.
