Global Geologica is looking to expand its technical team to support mining and exploration activities across Victoria, Tennant Creek and Kalgoorlie. RESPONSIBILITIES Grade Control and Production Geology: · Detailed Orebody Interpretation: Developing and maintaining detailed geological models of the orebody, including structural controls, alteration patterns, and mineralization styles, based on drilling data, mapping, and sampling. · Grade Control Planning and Implementation: Designing and overseeing grade control programs, including infill drilling, chip sampling, face mapping, and ore marking, to accurately define ore boundaries and minimize dilution. · Reconciliation: Regularly comparing predicted grades and tonnages with actual production to identify discrepancies and improve geological models and grade control practices. · Liaison with Mining Operations: Collaborating closely with mining engineers, surveyors, and production supervisors to ensure effective ore extraction and adherence to grade control plans. Exploration and Resource Development: · Exploration Program Design and Management: Planning, designing, and managing near-mine exploration programs to identify and delineate new ore resources. This includes drill hole planning, logging protocols, sampling procedures, and QA/QC. · Geological Data Management: Overseeing the collection, storage, and management of geological data, including drill logs, assays, mapping data, and structural measurements, ensuring data integrity and accessibility. Team Leadership and Mentorship: · Supervision of Junior Geologists and Technicians: Mentoring, training, and supervising junior geological staff, providing technical guidance and support. · Team Collaboration: Working effectively within the geology department and collaborating with other departments (mining, engineering, environment, etc.). REQUIREMENTS •Bachelor's Degree or higher in Geology •Minimum of 10 years of progressive experience working as a mine geologist is typically required. This experience should include: •Specific experience in underground gold mines is highly desirable. •Demonstrated ability to design, implement, and manage grade control programs, including drilling, sampling, mapping, and ore marking. •Experience in planning, designing, and supervising drilling programs (both RC and diamond). •A solid understanding of structural controls on gold mineralization and experience in structural mapping and interpretation. •Familiarity with geotechnical data collection and its relevance to mine safety and stability. •Prior experience in mentoring, supervising, or leading junior geologists, technicians, or field teams is highly valued. •Experience in managing geological projects, including planning, budgeting, and execution. KEY SKILLS AND ATTRIBUTES •A deep understanding of ore deposit geology, mineralization processes, and exploration techniques. •Ability to interpret complex geological data and solve practical mining-related problems. •Excellent written and verbal communication skills for reporting, presentations, and collaborating with multidisciplinary teams. •A strong commitment to safety protocols and procedures in a mining environment. •Ability to work effectively within a team and across different departments. BENEFITS • Attractive salary package • Experience with a new development opportunity • Extended roster with extended breaks
