Thank you for the opportunity to apply for the possible job opportunity. I am a great candidate that is extremely familiar with the responsibilities and safety associated with the roles (OSHA) and can perform them confidently. Given these requirements, I am certain that I have the necessary skills to successfully do the job adeptly and perform above expectations. I have experience in the laboratory making different concentrated solutions either by dilutions or other strategic ways. In addition to analyzing them by various analytical instruments such as: Spectrometry, Flame AA, ICP-OES, GC and GFAA.As well as maintaining proper maintenance and housekeeping and changing parts when required. As well as cleaning the instrument on a daily basis and cleansing the tubing and doing additional rinses when method blanks are showing contaminants (5% HNO3).

For mineral processing, dealing with jaw crushers and refining minerals and excluding the minerals from tailings by different flotations for the separation of minerals.

My technical report was on mineral processing, the separation of Nickel and Copper by various processes such as: Jaw crusher, pulverize, ball mill, flotations (primary, scavenger, scalp, depressant) digestions and analyzation on the flame AA (can provide the document if requested).

During the course of my academic career, I also managed to gain nearly six years of work experience in part time employments. I had the privilege of working for Milman Industries where I’ve learned valuable professional skills such as, thinking outside the box, being a team player and productivity improvements. Also, at Lake Shore Gold where I was able to do consistent maintenance, taking and analyzing samples and providing Intel with confidence. I have been praised to be considered a very hard worker from my professors and peers. Whether working on academic, extracurricular, or professional projects, I apply proven analytical, instrumentation and technical skills, which I hope to leverage my knowledge in this direction in your workplace. I also waitressed for over three years where I’ve gained valuable costumer service expertise. While working in fast passed environments and always thinking ahead as well as prioritising and being a team player, always lending out a helping hand.

After reviewing my resume, I hope you will agree that I am the type of competent and competitive candidate you are looking for. I look forward to elaborating on how my specific skills and abilities will benefit your company.
