Mario从未想象他的职业道路会引导他到矿业，但一旦他开始，那条路就会带领他在智利，加拿大，以及炼钢厂和炼钢煤和铜业务的旅程。Together, these experiences helped shape his view of how innovation and technology can help integrate all areas of the business and foster a culture of collaboration, an approach that will be critical as he helps establish a new way of working at Teck’s Quebrada Blanca Phase 2 project.

职业道路呈现形状

Growing up in the city of Santiago, Chile, Mario was unsure of what he wanted to study when he started university. It was his sister who pointed out that mining was a big part of Chile’s future, and with that advice in mind, he pursued a degree in Mining Engineering, then an MBA, at the University of Chile.

随着他的教育，在2010年，Mario加入了智利的Teck的Qubrada Blanca作业（QB），首先是作为爆破和钻探工程师，然后作为矿山管理的负责人，在那里他迅速获得了爆破专家的声誉。

在QB几年后，马里奥随后在不列颠哥伦比亚省举办了一个中期的加拿大炼铁煤炭运营中的中期规划工程师。

扩大观点

“在Fording River工作是我职业生涯中的一个重大转折点，因为它帮助我从不同的角度来了解业务。这也是我“创新旅程”的关键点，因为福特河总是争取卓越的运营和持续改进，“马里奥说。“这种经历帮助我更好地看到我们如何利用我们业务的技术。”

当马里奥回到Qubrada Blanca时，他就会思考他在普通河上看到的方法可以应用于QB，例如使用实时运输卡车数据和分析来改善卡车队的管理。

“At Fording River, they’re really experts at moving materials as efficiently as possible. I knew we could take that same approach at QB and make better use of technology to improve decision making when it comes to moving materials more efficiently,” says Mario. “Ultimately, it helped reduce mine costs and improve overall performance."

“Implementing technologies like this and having real-time data changes the rhythm of decision-making—it allows you to have the right conversations at the right time and establish better routines.”

一个新的机会

Now, Mario has been appointed the Manager of Integrated Operations at QB2.

“QB2 is going to be the biggest project Teck has ever implemented, and we have a tremendous opportunity to help define a new approach to mining,” says Mario.

考虑到这一点，马里奥正在领导一支建立新的工作方式的团队，其中所有业务领域都是集成的，合作是标准做法。

“创新，从我的角度来看，与人有关。万博手机版注册账号技术总是可用的，但真正的挑战是人们如何采用它。“

马里奥目前正在参加Teck的新兴领袖计划。
