    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
