Metallurgists will apply physical and chemical methods to separate valuable minerals from their ores and will design processes to separate valuable minerals from ores and to reduce minerals to metals and alloys. They will design and operate plants to produce concentrated mineral products and metals and will supervise sampling from various stages of processing for laboratory analysis and testing. They will modify and develop processes to improve recovery and quality as well as to reduce waste and costs. They will develop and operate processes to meet environmental requirements and will supervise a team of metallurgists, technicians and other workers. They will advise operators on production methods and quality control systems and communicate with other professionals (such as geologists, mining engineers, chemists, administrators and managers) to improve efficiencies. They will control expenditure and prepare budgets and technical reports.
