PURPOSE AND RATIONALE OF THE QUALIFICATION |
Purpose:
This qualification will provide qualifying learners with the necessary knowledge, understanding and competence to work as a first line mining supervisor in underground hardrock mines. The mining supervisor plays a critical role in the mining industry. Mining activities are often conducted under hazardous and difficult conditions, which have to be managed appropriately in order to preserve the lives of those working in the industry, and ensure operational efficiency. While the title "supervisor" implies supervisory, management and leadership competencies, these competencies are applied in conjunction with technical and operational competencies. The mining supervisor is directly responsible for the lives of his team and not only for merely achieving production targets. This qualification will have a positive impact on the production of minerals and contribute significantly to society in general and the South African economy. Furthermore, the mining industry creates opportunity for many secondary and tertiary mining and minerals related business activities. In many parts of South Africa, entire communities would be significantly affected if mining activities were to cease. Learners acquiring this qualification will have an improved understanding of their role; acquire the applied competencies to consistently and effectively execute their duties by contributing to the mining process and adhering to quality, occupational safety and legislative requirements. The qualification is designed to be flexible and accessible so that people are able to demonstrate the competencies required to work in a safe, healthy and effective manner in an underground environment. People credited with this qualification are able to: Rationale: The mining industry is one of the major contributors to the South African GDP and by the nature of its operations employs a large number of people. Underground mining activities involve the safe breaking, removal and support of rock and are very labour intensive. Supervisors working underground require sound technical knowledge of the mining process as well as supervisory qualities to lead teams involved in all the activities directly related to extraction of rock or mineral. This qualification is a revision of the previous National Certificate in Mining Operations (NRLD 49013) registered with SAQA. Changes are incorporated as a result of 4 years of practical implementation in the mining industry and reflect the drive towards continual improvement. The National Certificate in Mining Operations for Underground Hard Rock NQF Level 2 facilitates access for previously disadvantaged groups and other learners to acquire the technical knowledge and skills that are required to supervise teams involved in the excavation and removal of rock in underground mines. It will enhance the status and employability of the learner within the mining and minerals industry and contribute significantly to his or her performance in terms of both quality and quantity of work output. The qualification also allows for further access, career progression, portability and mobility within and between the different mining operations' areas in the mining and minerals industry. This qualification will have a positive impact on the production on minerals and contribute significantly to society in general and the South African economy. Furthermore, the mining industry creates opportunity for many secondary and tertiary mining and minerals related business activities. This is the first in a learning pathway of four qualifications for Mining Operations. The pathway ends with the National Certificate in Mining Overseeing NQF Level 5. This qualification series recognises the skills, knowledge and values relevant to a workplace and requires workplace experience. The majority of the learners learning towards this qualification are likely to be working in the mining and minerals sector as team members involved in underground mining activities. The qualification will give them the opportunity to balance their practical skills with the essential knowledge needed to earn a formal qualification in the supervision of mining operations. Qualifying learners will obtain the National Certificate in Mining Operations for Underground Hard Rock NQF Level 2 which will enable them to directly supervise the teams involved in the safe breaking, removal and support of rock or mineral. Depending on their learning path and work experience before engaging in learning towards this qualification, a period of practical work may be required before commencing with the National Certificate in Rock Breaking NQF Level 3. |

ASSOCIATED ASSESSMENT CRITERIA |
Associated Assessment Criteria for Exit Level Outcome 1:
Associated Assessment Criteria for Exit Level Outcome 2: Associated Assessment Criteria for Exit Level Outcome 3: > Range: The mining cycle refers to the safe breaking, removal and support of hardrock in accordance with site specific codes of practice. Associated Assessment Criteria for Exit Level Outcome 4: Integrated Assessment: Integrated assessment at the level of the qualification provides an opportunity for learners to show they are able to integrate concepts, actions and. ideas achieved across a range of unit standards and contexts. Integrated assessment must evaluate the quality of observable performance as well as the thinking behind the performance, and must be based on a summative assessment guide. The guide will spell out how the assessor will assess different aspects of the performance and will include: In some cases interference will be necessary to determine competence depending on the nature and context within which performance takes place. It is necessary to ensure that the fundamental part of the qualification is also targeted to ensure that while the competence may have been achieved in a particular context, learners are able to apply it in a range of other contexts and for future learning. The assessment should also ensure that all the critical cross-field outcomes have been achieved. The learner may choose in which language s/he wants to be assessed. This should be established as part of a process of preparing the learner for assessment and familiarising the learner with the approach being taken. While this is primarily a workplace-based qualification, evidence from other areas of endeavour may be introduced if pertinent to any of the exit-level outcomes. The assessment process should cover both the explicit tasks required for the qualification as well as the understanding of the concepts and principles that underpin the activities associated with the mining process. |
INTERNATIONAL COMPARABILITY |
Mining activities occur in many countries all over the world, although the South African mining industry is more diverse than that of most other countries. South African mines are of the deepest in the world, which has required a high level of expertise and the maintenance of stringent occupational health and safety standards.
In keeping with the diverse nature of the South African mining industry, the NC Mining Operations Level 2 covers both massive and narrow tabular mining, which makes it difficult to compare to another qualification which may cover only one of these contexts. The specific nature of underground hardrock, or narrow tabular, mining requires competencies and personal characteristics which are unique in relation to other forms of mining or minerals extraction. The mining conditions are intense, and workers are subject to physical and emotional challenges relating to restricted space, heat, humidity, darkness and hard physical labour. The materials, equipment and techniques applied in narrow tabular mining are very specialised and therefore comparable competencies, qualifications and courses will only be found where similar mining conditions are present. There are not many countries in the world where deep scale mining is practised, and therefore only a few comparable training programmes or qualifications could be found. After consultation with experienced mining engineers, it was decided to search for information in the following countries or regions for education and training systems pertaining to the safe breaking, removal and support of hard rock. Aspects searched for were qualifications, certificates, diplomas, skills programmes, training courses and examination syllabi. India, New Zealand, Canada and Australia are considered best practice because many aspects of their mining operations relate and compare to similar aspects of mining operations within the South African industry. A limiting aspect regarding international comparability is that the NQF Framework of South Africa and other countries are not identical, e.g. between South Africa and Australia. It is thus more meaningful to compare learning pathways, rather than individual qualifications. For that reason the NC Mining Operations Level 2 and Rockbreaking Level 3 have been in some cases compared to the same international qualifications, spanning both our levels. India: > There is a relation between the examination syllabi of the Mining Mates certificate and unit standards within the National Certificate in Mining Operations for Underground Hard Rock (Level 2) - South Africa as follows: Mining Mates Certificate: National Certificate in Mining Operations: Conclusions: New Zealand: > A National Certificate in Extractive Industries (Operations) was found. > There is a relation between the unit standards within the New Zealand qualification and unit standards within the National Certificate in Mining Operations for Underground Hard Rock (Level 2) - South Africa as follows: National Certificate in Extractive Industries (Operations): National Certificate in Mining Operations: Conclusions: Australia: > A Certificate II in Metalliferous Mining Operations. > This qualifications compares to the South African qualification as follows: Certificate II in Metalliferous Mining Operations-Underground: National Certificate in Mining Operations: Conclusions: Canada: > Set up and operate drills and drilling machines to produce a designated pattern of blasting holes. > Operate diamond drills or other specialized drills such as raise boring machinery to test geological formations or to produce underground passageways. > Set up and operate mining machinery to shear coal, rock or ore from the working face. > Load explosives, set fuses, and detonate explosives to produce desired blasting patterns and rock fragmentation in underground mines. > Operate scooptram, load-haul-dump (LHD) machine or mucking machine to load and haul ore from stopes, drifts and drawpoints to ore passes. > Perform duties required to ensure safety and to support the mining advance, such as scaling loose rock from walls and roof, drilling and installing rock bolts, extending and installing air and water pipes, operating ore loading machinery, inspecting mine shafts, operating hoists that transport people, equipment and materials through mine shafts, and constructing timber supports and cribbing if required. > Perform routine maintenance of mining machinery. > Ground Control. > Mine Ventilation. > Shaft Operations. > Introduction to Mining Safety. > Introduciton to the Mining Industry. Other Countries: Overall Conclusion: The NC Mining Operations L2 standards form a meaningful contribution to a learning pathway in underground mining. They are comparable to on the job training, courses and qualifications in the international arena. |
