Demonstrated experience in tailings resource estimation, including characterisation, sampling design, modelling, and estimation of tailings storage facilities as secondary or reprocessable resources.
Proficiency with mining software such as Leapfrog Edge, Datamine, Isatis, and similar platforms.
Strong organizational, communication, stakeholder management, and leadership skills.
Flexibility regarding work hours and project locations.
Driver's License Required: This position requires a valid driver's license and/or the ability to operate a company vehicle due to the nature of job duties, which include frequent travel to various client locations across a large geographical area.

10+ years of experience preferred in geological and mining environments.
Experience acting as a Qualified Person under NI 43-101, SK 1300 and JORC.
Experience reporting tailings resources under recognised codes and familiarity with the geochemical and geotechnical considerations specific to tailings reprocessing.

Key Responsibilities

Validate geological data and review QA/QC procedures.
Develop 3D geological models and perform geostatistical analyses.
Conduct grade interpolation and validate estimation results.
