Exploration Geologist

Golden Cariboo Resources is looking for an experienced exploration geologist to join our team at our exciting Quesnelle Gold Quartz Mine Project, based out of Hixon, BC.

The Quesnelle Gold Quartz Mine Property is located in central BC, about 4km east of Hixon which is about 55 km south of Prince George and about 50km north of Quesnel. The overall property size is over 94,000 hectares and the currently permitted area is underlain by Middle to Upper Triassic augite porphyry basaltic greenstone and sedimentary rocks of the Nicola Group within the Quesnel terrane in the west and sedimentary rocks with minor amphibolite of the Proterozoic–Paleozoic Snowshoe Group of the Kootenay terrane in the east; the latter represented by the Barkerville subterrane in this region. Ultramafic rocks of the Slide Mountain terrane locally occur along the Eureka thrust, which marks this terrane boundary. The Nicola Group is intruded by a syenite-diorite/gabbro body, assigned to the Early Jurassic Polaris Ultramafic suite along the western Property boundary and the Snowshoe Group is intruded by the Early Cretaceous Naver pluton, located in the center of the claim group. The Quesnelle Gold Quartz Mine Property covers the historical Pioneer and Cayenne showings, the Quesnel Quartz deposit, the North Hixon showing and the Company’s most recent discovery, the Halo zone.  The deposit model for the Property is the orogenic type, consisting of gold bearing quartz veins and quartz-carbonate-pyrite replacement style mineralization.

Job duties will include, but are not limited to, all aspects of logging core, drill hole planning/set up, field work/mapping as needed, generate drill sections, interpretation, heavy lifting, data validation & more.  Must have Class 5 drivers licence, proficiency with Micromine, core logging experience and database management skills. The preferred candidate will already be a Cariboo area resident with own transportation and have over 7 years industry experience.
