Description du poste

About the roleGSMI (Geology & Sustainable Mining Institute) of Mohammed VI Polytechnic University is looking for a Postdoctoral Researcher for a 12-month project on the sustainable valorization of complex phosphate ores. The project focuses on autogenous grinding as a low-energy way to liberate indurated phosphates, combining mineralogical and mechanical characterization, pilot-scale testing and process simulation to optimize grinding performance and resource recovery.

Key responsibilitiesCarry out a detailed literature review on the valorization of complex phosphate ores.Design and run mechanical, mineralogical and rheological characterizations of indurated phosphate.Lead the design and execution of lab-scale grinding and classification trials based on experimental design.Contribute to numerical modeling of beneficiation circuits (e.g. with USIMPAC or similar software).Analyze, interpret and report the results of simulations and pilot tests.Draft technical reports and scientific publications.Coordinate with internal researchers, external labs and industrial partners. Required profilePhD in Mineral Processing, Mining Engineering, Georesources Engineering or a related field.Proven experience in ore characterization techniques (mechanical, mineralogical, physical).Solid knowledge of comminution technologies and mineral beneficiation processes.Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, and excellent written and oral communication in English or French.Ability to work independently and in a multidisciplinary team.Preferred: experience in grinding technology, familiarity with process simulation software, prior collaboration with industry, and good knowledge of phosphate ores and the North African mineral context. To apply, candidates must submit a cover letter, detailed CV, list of publications, copies of diplomas and at least two professional references.
