About the Role
STLLR Gold is a dynamic mineral exploration company focused on discovery, and developing the Tower Gold Project and Hollinger Tailings Project in the Timmins area. We are currently seeking a motivated and skilled Project Geologist who can provide geochemical expertise to our multi-disciplinary exploration team. The successful candidate will be responsible for designing and executing geochemical programs in support of early- to advanced-stage mineral exploration projects, and developing discrete geochemical models for the various deposits. This role involves significant fieldwork, data interpretation, and integration of geochemistry into target generation and evaluation.
The position will report to the Principal Geologist and will support a collaborative and multidisciplinary team. The successful candidate will have a strong background in geochemistry, and will be able to apply modern geochemical techniques in diverse geological settings, contributing directly to discovery-focused exploration efforts.
*Schedule: The successful candidate will work on a rotational basis which will be determined based on their proximity to the work site. Approximately 20 days per month will be required on site during active programs, with regular 40-hour work weeks (remote) during non-active periods.
Key Responsibilities
Safety & Collaboration
Ensure personal and team adherence to health, safety and environmental standards, including those who work under their supervision.
Participate in health and safety initiatives, daily and monthly meetings and required reporting.
Maintain strong communication and collaboration within the exploration team and across other departments.
Represent the company in a professional manner.
Technical
Collect, record and plot detailed technical data and maintain accurate database records.
Work as a team with the Principal and Structural Geologists to help develop cohesive litho-structural and geochemical models for the various deposits.
Conduct detailed geological logging of drill core from the company’s exploration programs, including the documentation of lithology, mineralization, alteration, and oriented structural data.
Accurately select, mark and document sample intervals for assaying. Ensure strict adherence to company sample collection, shipping, and chain of custody procedures.
Interpret and integrate geochemical data with geological, geophysical, and structural information to support target generation and prioritization.
Conduct multi-element geochemical analysis using tools like ioGAS, Leapfrog, or GIS platforms to identify pathfinder elements and geochemical anomalies.
Collaborate with other geoscientists to refine exploration models.
Prepare and present technical reports, data summaries, and maps for internal reviews, partner meetings, or regulatory submissions.
Design and implement geochemical sampling programs (soil, stream sediment, rock, trench, drill core) to support exploration targets.
Supervise and participate in field-based sampling campaigns in remote areas, often under challenging conditions.
Ensure strict adherence to all company QA/QC protocols and procedures to best industry practices.
Continually evaluate and review new technologies and techniques as well as methodologies for improvements to the effectiveness and costs of the exploration program.
Identify outside consultants, associations and experts who could add value to the company assets through targeted studies and reviews.
Ability to operate data logging software, as well as other exploration related software, to ensure data is collected to best industry standards in maintaining the integrity and validity of data.
Create interpretive geological maps, cross-sections, long sections, and level plans, as well as contribute to the interpretation of geological data and drill results.
Monitor drill progress, as well as conduct regular site visits to perform drill inspections, or to ensure that orientation methods are followed.
Prepare weekly or monthly progress reports, as required.
Continually assess and make recommendations regarding the acquisition of lands, exploration and mapping programs and mine development.
Devote time to acquiring new applied geological and geochemical skills, with assistance from senior team members.
Other duties may be assigned as required.
