With three mineralogically different ore bodies being treated through the process plant, you will provide metallurgy-based decision making to develop appropriate blending strategies.

  • Plan, undertake and report on Metallurgical sampling, testwork and projects.
  • Demonstrate safety leadership and accountability in the Plant.
  • Engage with Process operators to improve their knowledge of the circuit.

ABOUT YOU


You are a talented, highly motivated individual with a hard-working attitude who wants to work within a team of likeminded metallurgists.

  • Excellent communication and report writing skills
  • Working knowledge and understanding of Metallurgical accounting
