Position Title: Postdoctoral Researcher Autogenous Grinding and Phosphate Ore Valorization.

Duration: 12 months.

Position Summary:

We are seeking a highly motivated and technically skilled Postdoctoral Researcher to join a multidisciplinary research project focused on the sustainable valorization of phosphate-rich mining waste through innovative comminution strategies. The successful candidate will play a leading role in advancing research on autogenous grinding as a low-energy alternative for liberating indurated phosphates stored in mining waste deposits (MATs). This project integrates mineralogical and mechanical characterization, pilot-scale testing, and advanced process simulation, with the objective of optimizing grinding performance and enhancing resource recovery. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in mineral processing, comminution modeling, and ore characterization, and will contribute to developing an integrated...
