MICROMINE Central Asia and the School of Mining and Geosciences at Nazarbayev University in Kazakhstan have signed a Memorandum of Understanding which aims to incorporate MICROMINE’s mining solutions into the education and training for students at Nazarbayev.
Established in 2016, the School of Mining and Geosciences aims to be the premier school for earth science education and research in Kazakhstan, and wants to develop Kazakhstan’s natural resource industry to be internationally recognised as safe, efficient and environmentally responsible through the education of the next generation of students.
MICROMINE Business Development Manager, Erick Kanaev commented “Our agreement with Nazarbayev University is exciting and we look forward to educating students using our software. We hope that through this partnership the students will learn to develop Kazakhstan’s natural resource industry to become internationally recognised.”
Micromine 2016 has impressive 3D graphics that makes it easier to display and understand geological features. Used by exploration, mining, environmental, consultants and government agencies around the world, Micromine ensures your students are familiar with global standards and will give them the good head start in the mining industry.
Micromine 2016 as an Academic solution, provides a better understanding of how various geological deposits occur, allows students to create 3D geological models, to search for mineral indicators and quantifying 3D ore distribution and to determine the most profitable pit, while graphically designing a mine layout and plan extraction sequence.
Through this academic agreement, MICROMINE plans to deliver training to students and provide their mining solutions for use in various resource projects conducted by the university. The next part of the agreement involves a class being taught at the university using the Micromine software.
MICROMINE’s class is expected to be opened for participation in late 2017. “We are pleased to be bringing a class to the university as we believe it will provide students with a higher level of education that they can use for research in their projects” added Kanaev.
