Bronwen Forsyth

Bronwen holds a PhD in Environmental Geochemistry, focused on the mineralogy and long-term acid and metalliferous drainage potential of tailings at the Mount Isa copper-zinc-lead mine in northwest Queensland, Australia. Bronwen has extensive experience with coal and base metal mining projects in British Columbia and Australia. Her areas of expertise include mine waste characterisation, sample program design, geochemical modelling (PHREEQC, Geochemist’s Workbench), mine waste management planning, water chemistry prediction, and source–pathway–receptor assessments for mine waters. Bronwen has a strong background in working collaboratively with other technical disciplines to achieve integrated mine closure outcomes.
