Conduct daily pit tours or underground face evaluations to define ore and waste boundaries
Map active mine faces, benches, and underground developments to track structural controls, alteration zones, and lithological variations
Supervise production sampling programs and oversee QA/QC protocols before dispatching samples to the laboratory
Integrate new structural data, assay results, and core-logging data to routinely update 3D geological and grade-control models using industry software
Collaborate with the Mine Planning Engineer to cross-reference actual mined grades/tonnages against the predictive model and monthly production forecasts
The Mine Geologist plays a critical operational role by tracking, mapping, and modeling the deposit to ensure the profitable extraction of ore while minimizing waste dilution.
