Marcelo Llano to Cohost AusIMM Mining Webinar

The webinar, presented in Spanish, will address tailings and geotechnics, water and environmental management, ESG and social performance, and the skills needed to meet evolving industry standards.

Marcelo will present with Felipe Vásquez from WSP USA and Marcela Sepúlveda from ContourGlobal.

Marcelo is a Senior Principal Geotechnical Engineer based in Australia focused on providing geotechnical consulting and numerical modeling to large projects in Australia and Papua New Guinea. He specializes in numerical modeling, risk-reduction analyses, field instrumentation, seepage barriers, and soil mechanics and liquefaction to support tailings and other dams. Marcelo's modeling experience includes simulating the failure of Brazil's Brumadinho Dam to create a failure model that helps identify errors that occurred. He has published or presented more than 25 papers in international journals and at conferences, and his work has received over 150 citations.
