Nominees for the Discipline of Geology:

The following candidates for The AusIMM Chartered Professional Board 2015-16 Term have been listed in random order. Nominees for the Discipline of Geology: Jeremy Peters FAusIMM CP (Min, Geo) *Anthony Osman FAusIMM CP(Geo) Jeremy Peters FAusIMM CP (Min, Geo) Principal Consultant, Corporate Division Snowden Mining Industry Consultants Mining Engineering and Geology Jeremy is a Mining Engineer and Geologist with some 24 years exploration, open pit, underground, management and consulting experience. Were he to be appointed to the Board, heis contribution will be toward the active promotion of Professional Development and mentoring. Jeremy successfully bridges Mining Engineering and Geology as a Chartered Professional in both disciplines and undertakes exploration management, scoping and feasibility study and Reserve estimation assignments in addition to his Corporate work at Snowden. A current project involves the drafting of a CRIRSCO-aligned Reporting Code for Mongolia, which has exposed him to the structure of a Professional Organisation and its manner of recognition of Chartered Professionals. He has contributed to the drafting of Chartered professional and Professional Development rules for the Mongolian Professional organisation (MPIGM). This has developed a strong interest in and views on the role of Professional Organisations in fostering and recognising excellence. He recognises a relationship between the ststus of a CP and the public s view of mining industry professionals. Jeremy s view is that the Professional Organisation and CP Board is ultimately the arbiter of quality in the industry. While there is a necessity for disciplinary procedures, a far more effective approach is for the standards required of a CP to be implicit, particularly in relation to an understanding of resporting codes and their implications. A CP must be aware of current industry practise, which is what mandatory Professional Development is about. A CP must be prepared and capable of mentoring less-experienced colleagues for the benefit of all parties. Jeremy is an advisor to major stock exchanges in relation to reporting codes and listing compliance and he prepares and presents Snowden s Mining Engineering-related courses in addition to his consulting work and lectures at the Western Australian School of Mines.

Nominees for the Discipline of Geotechnical: Hendrik Grobler MAusIMM CP(Geotech) Jacquelyn Purcell (Monk) MAusIMM CP(Geotech) *Ross Seedsman FAusIMM CP(Geotech) *Peter Hills FAusIMM CP(Geotech) Johann van Wijk FAusIMM CP(Geotech) Hendrik Grobler MAusIMM CP(Geotech) Regional Geotechnical Engineer Eldorado Gold Geotechnical Engineer I received my professional education as a BSc student at the University of Johannesburg (previously RAU) followed by a GDE at Witwatersrand University and a Masters Degree in Mining at the University of New South Wales. I have been involved in operational geotechnical engineering (Rock Mechanics) as well as drilling and blasting underground and open pit hard rock mining since 1991. I have been involved in the mining profession as a geotechnical engineer in projects and operations across Africa; Australia; Canada and Europe in several mineral commodities including diamonds, gold, and base metals. Except for being a registered member, I have no previous involvement as a committee member with The AusIMM. My interest as a board member is not to change but to maintain and uphold status quo standard of professional membership applications and reviews. Page 3 of 11

Jacquelyn Purcell (Monk) MAusIMM CP(Geotech) Senior Geotechnical Engineer LDO Geotechnical Engineer At Sydney University, I studied civil engineering after which I commenced a 2 year graduate program in rock mechanics at Mount Isa Mines. My keen interest and enthusiasm resulted in being fast-tracked and placed into normal rock mechanics duties, where I stayed for a further 3 years. Following MIM I commenced work as a geotechnical consultant in the coal industry, with Strata Engineering (who were later purchased by Golder) where I stayed for approximately 3.5 years. About 6 months ago I helped start a geotechnical division as part of a larger group of coal businesses; namely LDO. Also, I am currently the secretary for the Eastern Australian Ground Control Group, which I have been involved in for approximately 5 years. Whilst I am a relatively young professional (30 years), I am interested in being on the board of chartered professionals in order to improve standards within our industry, which I am very passionate about. Honesty, integrity and sound engineering judgement is more difficult to come by than you would expect, I m afraid - however I feel that these qualities are essential for chartered engineers. Safety and reliability relies upon suitably qualified and experienced people making significant decisions, and such people need to be properly qualified. The mining industry has in the past been indifferent to the chartered (and RPEQ) processes, and this needs to stop. There are a significant number of people being placed in jobs that they are not suitably qualified for. More focus needs to be put on professional development of people in mining, similar to all other engineering disciplines. I would love to assist the committee in making the process the best it can be; ensuring that obtainment of CP status is awarded to suitable candidates and that recipients are proud to uphold the title.

*Ross Seedsman FAusIMM CP(Geotech) Consultant Seedsman Geotechnics Pty Ltd Geotechnical engineering Ross has consulted to the Australian and International coal industry for over 25 years in both the surface and underground sectors. His approach to mine geotechnical engineering is based on his qualifications and experience in geology and civil engineering. He has been a regular contributor to the Coal Operators conferences held annually in Wollongong and the EAGCG. Practical advances in mine geotechnical engineering come from operators and consultants developing their knowledge, applying it to their operations and then sharing experiences with their colleagues. The Chartered Professional Board of the AusIMM has a key role in facilitating, encouraging, and recognising this process for the benefit of its members. After a period of rapid growth in the number of Chartered Professionals, the Board needs to better clarify its processes and in particular provide clearer guidelines for continuing professional development. *Peter Hills FAusIMM CP(Geotech) Principal Mining Geotechnical Engineer Pitt & Sherry Engineers Geotechnical (Mining) Peter has 33 years mining industry experience in Australia and Papua New Guinea. Currently Principal Geotechnical Engineer with Pitt&Sherry Engineers, Peter was previously Technical Services Manager at the Beaconsfield Mine throughout its modern production history. He also has worked at Mt Lyell and Porgera and in Sydney. Peter has been involved with the Tasmania Branch over many years, where he is currently Chair. In recent years, Peter has served on diverse AusIMM conference committees including UGOPS(3), MillOps(2), Mine Geology(1) and Narrow Vein(1) and attended the last four Congresses. Peter has been a member of the Chartered Professional Board for the past two years. During this period he has been keen to promote the Chartered Professional program and ensure that the value of CP status is enhanced wherever possible. This means that obligations of CP status must be maintained and enhanced over time. It also means that requirements for meeting CP obligations must be transparent and readily understood by all those who have attained or wish to attain CP Accreditation. His ongoing objective is to see this happen. Finally, there is a need for management of the CP program to evolve as the number of CP Accredited members increases; this will be a challenge for the CP Board moving forward and process is ongoing.
