JOB PURPOSE                                                                                                                                         

Resource geology position that works as part of a team to assist in the identification, evaluation, exploitation, and extraction of ore reserves. This role delivers fit-for-purpose, high-quality models aligned to the business needs. A level of autonomy is necessary to resolve complex problems where creativity, technical judgment, tact, and initiative are required. Collaboration with key stakeholders through daily site engagement, including regular field visits in the pit and/or underground are essential to validate model assumptions and performance.

Develop and validate geological models with varying levels of complexity. Produce high-quality, accurate resource models, considering the financial impacts on mining and exploration decisions. Prepare and present detailed geological information and resource estimates to senior management and stakeholders. Ensure orebody knowledge has been communicated for integration into all part of the business. Integrate field observations and interpretations into high-quality geological models, focused on geologically constrained explicit-implicit estimation domains. Collate, analyze, and interpret data to write impactful technical reports that summarizes adopted workflows, explains business impacts and identification of risk or opportunity with assigned actions across the business. Work independently and collaborate effectively within multi-disciplinary project teams. Carry out a range of research activities either to support others or to fulfill the requirements of the role Drive a positive feedback loop to ensure model validation occurs across the mining geology value chain Field leadership with mine geologists to validate models in the pit and/or underground Work with reconciliation geologists to identify trends linked to model performance Resource geologists are validating their block models against geological controls to mineralization Resolve queries from engineering, operations, or others as applicable by providing information on complex processes and the related policies Follow the organization's HS&E policies, procedures, and mandatory instructions to identify and mitigate environmental risks and risks to the wellbeing of oneself and others in the workplace; instruct the team in safe working methods; identify instances of risky behaviors within the team and take appropriate action, escalating serious issues as appropriate
