About Us

We are an exploration company focused on unlocking the next generation of gold and copper discoveries in Papua New Guinea. Our foundation is built on
district-scale landholdings
in proven mineral belts, strategically positioned near world-class operations.

The current portfolio includes projects such as Wild Dog, Kesar/Arau and Tinga, high-impact targets with the potential for large-scale porphyry and epithermal systems. Our strategy is to advance these opportunities through

The Role

  • Work collaboratively with senior management, consultants, and recognised industry experts.
  • Mentor and support geology teams in-country, promoting technical excellence.
  • Uphold the highest safety, ESG, and operational standards in challenging field environments.

What We Offer

  • Flexibility:
    No fixed roster. Remain Brisbane-based with field trips into PNG as required.
  • Impact:
    Work directly with decision-makers—your input will shape exploration programs at the highest level.
  • Opportunity:
    Exposure to exceptional ground with the budget, backing, and freedom to explore properly.
  • Reward:
    Competitive salary, annual bonus, and meaningful equity incentives.
  • Team:
    Join a small, high-performing exploration group with the potential to make a discovery of global significance.

About You

  • BSc or MSc in Geology, Earth Sciences, or related field.
  • 12+ years' mineral exploration experience with porphyry and/or epithermal systems.
