About Mineral Mining Services
Mineral Mining Services are a privately owned, WA based contract miner. Our clients include small cap gold miners (ASX and privately owned) and a select few tier one non-gold owner operator miners.
Our growth has been significant and has been achieved by delivering results that our clients are proud of and can rely upon. Our offering includes turn-key project delivery with plant, operators, administration, engineers, geologists and project management. We are not a wet/dry hire plant provider, we are miners.
Having recently been awarded a Kalgoorlie based, greenfield mining contract, we are looking to add to our Technical Services team with the addition of a Mine Geologist.
This role will be offered on an 8/6 FIFO from Perth or DIDO from Kalgoorlie roster.
About the Role
As a Mine Geologist, you will play a pivotal role in supporting the geological operations of our mining projects, ensuring adherence to safety protocols and operational efficiencies.
Reporting to the Senior Mine Geologist, you will join a dynamic mining team driven by passion and dedication.
Responsibilities:
- Assist in providing geological guidance and support during drill and blast operations to optimise ore recovery.
- Participate in geological mapping, sampling, and data interpretation to support mine planning and production activities.
- Collaborate closely with mine engineering and operations teams to contribute to short and long-term mine plans aimed at maximising ore recovery and minimising dilution.
- Support ore grade control processes and assist in implementing strategies to maintain grade quality and optimise mill feed.
- Participate in regular geological audits and reviews to identify opportunities for process improvements in mining practices.
- Receive mentorship and guidance from senior geologists and contribute to the development of junior geologists and technicians.
- Assist in ore and geological interpretation, including wireframing based on drilling and mapping results.
- Participate in grade estimation and modelling tasks, gaining exposure to geostatistical techniques.
Qualifications and Experience:
- Bachelor's degree in Geology or a related field.
- Some experience in production open-pit mining is preferred, with exposure to gold deposits being advantageous.
- Familiarity with geological modelling software is desirable (e.g., Surpac, Vulcan).
- Basic understanding of grade control, ore reconciliation, and resource estimation concepts.
- Effective communication skills and the ability to collaborate within multidisciplinary teams.
- Demonstrated commitment to safety, environmental responsibility, and ethical conduct.
