Minerals Engineering
Minerals engineering is a field focused on the development and optimization of processes to extract valuable minerals and metals from natural ore deposits. It involves designing techniques for efficient, environmentally responsible extraction, processing, and refining of mineral resources. This discipline combines principles of geology, chemistry, and engineering to improve how minerals are mined, processed, and made suitable for use in products like electronics, construction, and energy. The goal is to maximize resource recovery while minimizing environmental impact and operational costs.
