* Act as the Company's technical authority on exploration geology, advising on mineral systems, targeting methodologies and data interpretation.
* Integrate and interpret multidisciplinary datasets (geology, geochemistry, geophysics, remote sensing) to generate high-quality, testable exploration targets.
* Oversee QA/QC processes from data acquisition through to database management, including spatial databases.
* Undertake geological modelling and contribute to resource estimation in collaboration with external consultants.
