About 29Metals and the Role

29Metals Limited is an ASX-listed mining company focused on producing copper, along with other base and precious metals critical to the global energy transition.

We operate two long-life assets: Golden Grove in Western Australia and Capricorn Copper in Queensland. Our exploration interests also include a strategic tenement package and exploration project in Redhill, Chile.

Golden Grove is a high-grade underground mining operation producing copper, zinc, and precious metals, with a life expectancy of over 10 years and significant mine-life extension potential at existing orebodies and highly prospective near-mine growth opportunities.

This is an exceptional opportunity for a senior geologist to drive the continued exploration and management of leases, ensuring work activities are completed safely, on time, and within budget.

  • Lead and mentor the Exploration team, fostering a collaborative, high-standard work environment.
  • Generate and update 3D geological models to identify and prioritise prospective drilling targets.
  • Plan, design, and manage underground delineation, extensional, and near-mine drilling programmes.
  • Supervise all surface-based drilling activities, conduct drill core logging, and perform sample analysis.
  • Manage project budgets, analyse cost performance, and report results to ensure financial accountability.
  • Drive continuous improvement initiatives within the Exploration team to enhance operational efficiency and data integrity.
Requirements and Qualifications
  • A strong background in exploration geology, including previous supervisory and team management experience.
  • Tertiary qualification in geology or a related discipline, as well as relevant professional industry membership.
  • Expertise in near-mine / brownfields exploration.
  • Well-versed in planning, implementing, and supervising drilling programs, including deep directional drilling (wedging, navi cuts etc.).
  • Experience in using mining software, such as Micromine, Leapfrog, MapInfo, Vulcan, or Geobank.
  • Current C Class Driver's Licence (manual).
About You

Candidates should have excellent leadership skills, strong technical knowledge, and experience working in a similar role.

The ideal candidate will be able to motivate and inspire the team, make informed decisions, and provide expert guidance.

We offer a competitive salary and excellent benefits package, including a family-friendly roster, access to training and development opportunities, and a chance to work on exciting new projects.

Estimated Salary Range

$120,000 - $150,000 per annum, depending on experience.

This role offers a unique opportunity to join a dynamic team, develop your skills and expertise, and contribute to the success of 29Metals Limited.
