• Oversee geological modelling, data validation, and QA/QC systems to support reliable Mineral Resource estimation.
• Support Resource & Reserve updates in line with JORC 2012 standards (preferred).
• Provide technical inputs and risk assessments for Scoping, Pre-Feasibility (PFS), and Feasibility Studies (FS).
• Guide exploration targeting across porphyry and epithermal copper-gold systems.

Strategic Mine Planning

• Support long-term mine planning for open-pit operations and underground transition scenarios.
• Contribute to pit design, mine scheduling, cut-off grade optimization, and infrastructure planning.
• Support CAPEX/OPEX modelling and technical-economic trade-off evaluations.
• Ensure integration across geology, mining, metallurgy, hydrology, and project teams.

OLC & Infrastructure Development

• Provide executive oversight of the engineering, design, permitting, and construction of the overland conveyor (OLC).
• Review engineering studies, geotechnical assessments, route optimization, and technical documentation.
• Coordinate with EPC/EPCM contractors, engineering teams, and stakeholders to ensure delivery within cost, schedule, and safety targets.
• Ensure alignment of OLC with mine planning, material handling strategy, and operational readiness.
• Oversee project risk management, contractor performance, environmental compliance, and quality assurance.

Governance, ESG & Stakeholder Management
