Senior Placer / Alluvial Geologist – Consulting Engagement

Location: Yukon (Dawson District) Engagement: Contract / Consulting (Seasonal Field + Remote Modeling Support)

Compensation: Competitive Day Rate (Based on Experience)

6 Month Contract (Seasonal) + extensions following years- Fly in and Fly Out 4 Weeks On 2 Weeks Off

About the Project We are an expanding Yukon placer mining operation controlling multiple contiguous claims in the Dawson district. The operation is transitioning from validation-stage mining into scalable production with planned winter stripping and high-volume seasonal washing. We are seeking a senior placer geologist on a consulting basis to help validate ground, reduce stripping risk, and support disciplined expansion decisions.

Scope of Engagement

(Phase 1 – Validation & Modeling) The consultant will:

Review existing geological data and historical work
Develop a conceptual alluvial model of the claim block
Identify probable paleochannel trends and bench systems
Design a cost-effective drill or bulk sampling program
Interpret drill logs and build preliminary yardage/grade models
Provide strip depth and pit targeting recommendations
Deliver a practical, economically focused technical summary

This engagement is focused on decision-making — not academic reporting.

Targeting map(s) and conceptual channel interpretation
Drill grid design with rationale
Volume and grade sensitivity modeling
Written technical memorandum with recommendations
Ongoing advisory support during field execution (as required)

Required Experience

Registered P.Geo (Yukon eligibility preferred)
7+ years placer/alluvial gold experience
Direct experience in Yukon or similar northern placer systems
Demonstrated experience interpreting drill data in fluvial systems
Strong understanding of:
- Permafrost impacts on deposit geometry
- Field practical and mining-oriented
- Comfortable working in active pits
- Understands strip ratio economics
- Has advised on operations exceeding 150 yd/hr
- Experience scaling exploration into production

We are not seeking hard-rock exploration specialists.
