Job Overview
This role involves working as a geologist on an exciting project within a large land holding.
The team is focused on exploration and mine development, with the goal of becoming a mid-tier gold producer.
The Role:
* Develop conceptual models using mineral systems concepts, Eastern Goldfields tectono-thermal history, and gold mineralisation analogues.
* Test these models through generating hypotheses and collecting data.
* Determine scale-relevant data for selecting prospectivity criteria.
* Compile and evaluate geoscientific data from surface and drilling samples, remote sensing, geophysical surveys, and geochemical data.
* Integrate data to form geological maps combining regolith, stratigraphy, structure, and alteration.
* Participate in target ranking workshops and populate the exploration pipeline.
* Collaborate with senior geologists to deliver geological assessments, targeting, ranking, and program proposal processes.
* Plan and execute project work and field programs, ensuring timely completion of reporting requirements.
* Assist with day-to-day management of drill contractors, monitor rig sampling practices, and ensure compliance with company standards.
* Ensure timely completion of concise geological and departmental reporting.
* Assist in managing human resources during exploration and resource drilling programs.
* Attend and chair meetings as required.
* Mentor geologists and technicians to maintain high technical standards.
* Tertiary qualifications in Geology.
* Minimum 3-5 years' experience in an exploration role.
* Skilled in GIS software, preferably QGIS or Leapfrog, with exposure to exploration geostatistical packages like ioGAS.
* Understanding of Eastern Goldfields geology and Archaean gold lode systems.
* Demonstrable experience in initiating and testing novel geological theories.
* Solid knowledge of exploration concepts and techniques.
* Understanding of mining and exploration tenements, administration, and occupational health and safety.
* Concise and efficient report writing and other geological documentation.
* Class C WA manual driver's licence.
* Make a meaningful impact.
* Challenge yourself and others to improve and pursue innovative solutions.
* Work safely and efficiently.
* Create a respectful and inclusive environment.
* Enjoy a dynamic and fun work culture.
