Provide technical leadership in mine geology practices across underground and open pit operations, establishing and maintaining best-practice standards, promoting consistency across assets, and actively participating in independent peer reviews.
Lead and mentor Mine Geology leadership and SMEs, fostering collaboration across site geology teams and supporting knowledge sharing, coaching, and the transfer of key operational learnings related to orebody behavior, structural complexity, and grade variability.
Own and continuously improve Model to Mine to Mill reconciliation systems, standards, and data tracking, ensuring accurate data flow from mine to mill, evaluating reconciliation between models and production, and driving a strong feedback loop to improve performance across the mining geology value chain.
Collaborate cross-functionally with mining engineers, metallurgists, and other stakeholders to ensure integration across geology, metallurgy, mine planning, and exploration, optimizing resource extraction strategies and supporting aligned decision-making.
Analyze geological observations from mining to refine orebody interpretation, improve understanding of orebody geometry, structural controls, and mineralization continuity, and support operations in interpreting variability observed during production.
Identify and provide expertise on geological factors impacting mining performance, including grade variability, dilution, ore loss, and structural features (faults, folds, breccias), ensuring these insights are incorporated into geological models and mine planning.
Support and enhance grade control strategies, including evaluation of drilling approaches, interpretation workflows, and guidance to improve mining selectivity and ore/waste discrimination.
Partner with geological modeling specialists to ensure models reflect mining observations, improving domaining, structural interpretation, and continuity assumptions, and ensuring insights inform resource models and future drilling strategies.
Support continuous improvement of mine geology workflows, data collection practices, and technical approaches, while providing expert guidance on complex geological challenges and participating in technical reviews where geology impacts resource confidence or mine planning.
Escalate material geological matters to the Director, Geology, as appropriate.
Preform other duties as assigned.
